just caught the end of the film, it's a classical piece (well known but not by me!) which is used at the end, just before the credits roll. i can't find any info on a soundtrack, perhaps someone has seen it or is better at retrieving that kind of information?
thanks in advance, dearies.

looks like the composer himself replied. if it isn't a fake account.

The Simon Boswell website has some info about it.
JB: One specific question I wanted to ask: why was Photographing Fairies never released?
SB: That's a good question. I made a whole album, and I even went and recorded extra tracks for it, because I had a deal set up with Varese Sarabande. Then, for one reason or another, the movie went straight to video in America, so they pulled the plug.
JB: That shouldn't affect the CD though, should it? Varese have released other scores of films which went straight to video.
SB: I felt quite let down by it all, actually, not to mention out of pocket - not just because I went in and recorded the extra tracks, but because I had a mastered album ready. Photographing Fairies is a score I'm quite proud of actually. I got my inspiration for it after someone played me some Lutoslawski, and I thought he had a fantastic sound. Now, I don't think I can do it in quite the way he does it, so I tried to do it in my own way, which was to get the orchestra to play sections of very strange sounds, and edit them together afterwards in a way that worked with the images. It's taken me a long time to not feel like I'm cheating when I do things like that. I don't any more - I feel I'm just using the technology in a way he might have done.

Second Movement of Beethoven's Seventh Symphony to be exact.

they're talking about the music in the film. apparently the 2nd movement of Beethoven's 7th Symphony is used through out the film, but that's not the piece at the end, which is a kind of waltz? (haven't seen the film)
anyway - the supposed composer writes:
by - simon.boswell@virgin.net (Mon Jun 13 2005 09:06:51 )
All of the music in the movie is by me, except the hanging scene which is a re-recording I made of the 2nd movement of Beethoven 7th Symphony. The soundtrack album (although it's been ready for years) is not available as Varese Sarabande decided in their wisdom not to release it when the movie went straight to video in th USA (leaving me $5,000 out of pocket I might add!) Feel free to email them and complain!

This is all I caught of the film - the man being hanged. It is odd because earlier on in the evening, my girlfriend asked me to remind her which is my favourite Beethoven symphony, to which I replied 'the seventh' and lo, I turn over and there is beethoven's 7th being played, and my favourite movement!
