Favourite Film Scores
We all know that some movies wouldn't come across very well without the music score, but what is your favourite pieces of music from a film?
I'll kick it off with the following... Coffey On The Mile - The Green Mile Riggs & Murtaugh - Lethal Weapon 2 Time Travel - The Time Machine |

I cannot imagine Meet Joe Black without that score. Did the producers (of several films) decide that their movie had a certain melancholy quality that needed them to get Thomas Newman on board.....Or did Thomas Newman create that mood?

A few years ago I suddenly realised that several films that I found very moving.....all had a soundtrack written by Thomas Newman.
I also quite liked his work on Skyfall... especially the part where M and Bond drive to Scotland, the music and imagery of that scene work so brilliantly together https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fX7oGL30-w |

Ice Dance - Edward Scissorhands
Wild Theme - Local Hero Opening Titles - Batman '89 I really like Elmer Bernstein's work on Ghostbusters. The score is brilliant... it's a shame it's so hard to find... |

i have never bought that many soundtrack albums, but Bladerunner is one and for me captures the film beautifully.
