 Like Gwen Stefani, Wainwright makes his screen debut in The Aviator, in which he also sings. Film is the perfect vehicle for Rufus’ theatrical music, which often seems too grand for CDs alone. This release, the dark flipside to 2003’s fine Want One, covers both bases, offering 14 audio tracks and a 20-track concert DVD. It’s a formidable package, featuring operatic and classical nuances on such new and recent songs as the charming “Little Sister,” the harrowing “This Love Affair” and the heartbreaking “Dinner at Eight.”
