...example, “The Ghost Inside” is arguably the most beguiling track on the album, yet it never transcends what the two individuals have previously created on their own. The song starts with a strong hip-hop beat and finds Mercer singing in a reverb-rich falsetto. Two-thirds in, it takes a turn and Mercer drops his voice down to his normal range where he is accompanied by the somewhat hackneyed vacillation of strings and heavy bass. The yearning and nomadic nature of Mercer’s voice traveling through Burton’s trip...
While “The Ghost Inside” demonstrates how Mercer’s voice merges with Burton’s aesthetic, opener “The High Road” slips back and forth between two respective worlds, sounding more like The Shins as imagined by Danger Mouse then a project of its own.

But the big race, not so much at the box office as in this week's Oscar pools, was between two nominees for the foreign-language Academy Award, both of them released by Sony Pictures Classics. A Prophet, Jacques Audiard's French prison drama, opened to a decent $170,000 in nine theaters in New York and Los Angeles, while Michael Haneke's The White Ribbon made $168,000 in its ninth week of limited release.
