Great Movie Soundtracks

**EmperorTud** · 11-06-2008, 09:18 PM

Sergio Leone directed Once Upon a Time in America, Once Upon a Time in the West and several other well known films.

However Ennio Morricone scored the movies, not Leone.

Shawshank Redemption when he puts the Mozart aria (forget what it was now) over the speakers in the jail and locks himself in the control room.

"Red Dragon" (the first movie), scene when he gets busted at the end. In-a-gadda-da-vida, awfully fitting.

^each of those films/soundtracks was in some way life changing for me.

**redfoot the fence** · 24-06-2008, 04:53 PM

The soundtracks for Schindlers List, Sophie's Choice and Trainspotting are great.

**Frankenstein** · 24-06-2008, 05:20 PM

All the best one's I know have been mentioned.

Got to put in a vote for the original Star Wars trilogy though. Schoolbook example of efficient use of themes to accentuate the scenes, along classical music lines.

**bustak** · 24-06-2008, 05:47 PM

I love the Rushmore soundtrack!

**Frankenstein** · 25-06-2008, 11:00 AM

Orange County
Dead Man
