/serious mode

It’s a decent film, worth watching anyway. But you can’t look at the soundtrack and judge based on the songs, it’s the way the songs are choreographed into the film that makes it brilliant.

Yes you are quite right about how the songs work with the film so I'll have to give it a watch 👍🏻

Good to see morricone and lalo schiffrin already mentioned.

Quincy Jones should also get a shout for his many fine soundtrack contributions.

It might not be the best overall soundtrack, but is there a better musical moment than the escape scene in The Italian Job?

Neither were the best films but such a visual and audio treat, plus they remind me of happier times

Until the end of the world - Wim Wenders

Romeo + Juliet: Directed by Baz Luhrmann

My 2 faves:
Dead Man . Awesome film, awesome soundtrack (Neil Young)
Southern Comfort, in a similar vein - Ry Cooder. Awesome film too.

Donkey Punch has a damn good soundtrack. Great soundtrack, great film (actually, terrible film 😀 )

Morvern Caller (with Samantha Morton) is a bit miserable, but the music is fab (Can, Aphex Twin, Velvets.. etc)

Ocean's Eleven prob already been mentioned.

The Hit from 1984 I have the soundtrack on vinyl somewhere. I thought it was flamenco, but this trailer has some dodgy riffing. I'll have to dig it out and have a listen. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087414/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

Ducks over dubbed 2stroke Detroit diesel rather than the puny Caterpillar actually fitted to the Mack is sound for the soul.

And I don't think I've seen any mention of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me.

Apologies if I missed it, but definitely in my top few film soundtracks.

Though maybe there ought to be separate threads for soundtrack music designed to accompany the movie scenes and soundtracks which just have a nice selection of songs.
