Petra Haden's one-person, all-vocals take on the Who's album The Who Sell Out was a crazy stunt she completed on a dare, but also a stunning artistic statement that showed what determination and crazy vocal skill could do to a classic album. Turn it inside out and make it small enough to fit in your pocket, basically. A decade later, Haden decided to do the same thing to a collection of her favorite themes from the silver screen. She applied her elastic pipes to the likes of "God's Lonely Man" from Taxi Driver, "Superman Theme," and "Pascal's Waltz" from Big Night, singing the lead melodies but also all the backing parts as well.
