Every Song In Deep Water
Hulu’s Deep Water features a variety of new and classic songs on its soundtrack that supports the psychological thriller’s high-stakes mind games. Starring Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas as married couple Vic and Melinda Van Allen, Deep Water is the first film directed by Adrian Lyne in 20 years, who is arguably best known for his 1987 erotic psychological thriller Fatal Attraction.

For instance, Deep Water repeatedly plays “Old MacDonald Had a Farm” for Vic and Melinda’s daughter as a way to get on the nerves of Ana de Armas’ frustrated character.
