Interesting list but I think the movie Chicago (2002) was over looked. Take a look at the list and state what you think.

For me, I love the foloowing, though the there others I like as well, these came first to mind.Out of AfricaCinema ParadisoThe MissionIo Sono L'Amore (not an original score but the best of John Adams)

 

[paigexox]

I am a fan of any pretty much any soundtrack done by Hans Zimmer, Jerry Goldsmith, or Clint Mansell.

 

[nudeyorker]

I disagree with nominating soundtracks that were based on a Broadway musical... but if we are doing that I would include Chicago, but then I would also include Funnygirl and Mame.

My nominations that were not included are Out Of Africa, Dr. Zhivago and The Hunger.

 

[Magnus_Phallus]

What about the music they used in The Exorsist (1973)

Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield a brilliant masterpiece

I'm a fan of slightly more contemporary popular culture/cult/iconic soundtracks....
Certain of the soundtracks coming to mind are:
-Go
-Kill Bill (most soundtracks following a Tarantino/Rodrigues collaboration are pretty
wicked)
-The Rules of Attraction (can't get enough of this soundtrack)
-Love Actually (i'm a soppy/hopeless romantic, and every track on that album brought
memories of the film)
-Moulin Rouge.....come on.....
-I'll second Lord of the Rings and 3rd Chicago.

I think Scarface has a pretty awesome soundtrack. 'Push It To The Limit' is a stand-alone classic!

 

[798686]

@Titan - Pulp Fiction is a great soundtrack too.

MoT - Scarface...kinda 80s synth?

MoT - Scarface...kinda 80s synth?

Yes Joll! A few examples - YouTube - Push It To The Limit (Scarface) - Paul Engemann

YouTube - Scarface Soundtrack - Rush Rush - Featuring the lovely Debbie Harry of Blondie!

YouTube - Tony's Theme (Scarface) - Giorgio Moroder - The song that plays whenever he gets angry and gives 'the stare', (usually before killing someone.)

 

[camchain]

2 from me are - Blues Brothers & The Lost Boy's i have in my collection.

 

[HellsKitchenmanNYC]

Personally for me soundtrack are hard b/c they're usually comprised of 30 second music pieces mixed in w/longer ones. It's easier to love a soundtrack if it moves along like maybe Grease or Yentl. It doesn't have to have hit records to be enjoyable but something like the 2 i mentioned are enjoyable throughout.

No Hedwig and the Angry Inch?
