    The original Picnic at Hanging Rock. Pretty much all of it.

    An American Werewolf in London – great soundtrack and very funny editing.

    I Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In) from The Big Lebowski dream sequence.

    The use of The End In Apocalypse Now.

    Pretty much all of O Brother Where Art Thou.

    I was forced to watch Dirty Dancing! And it was … ok! A million times better than that Star is Born travesty!

    Been said already but interstellar for the win, especially through a good system with a powerful sub, the scene where he drives away from the farm and then it cuts to the ship taking off……just awesome 👏. I can make my pictures on the wall move around, bounce books from the shelf and I can feel the air movement from the front port on my krk 12s2 sub from 8ft away…..very childish but it leaves you digging fingernails into the seat as you hold on for dear life.

    Noooooooooooo……… Aagh………….

    I love Morricone but not that. In my view the natives should have broken the bloody thing before he started playing.

    Erm, I’m an amateur oboist.

    True Romaance soundtrack,especially the ‘Sicilian’ scene,Dennis Hopper’s character is about too get bumped off by Chris Walken,a wonderful operatic piece but with a senseless violent outcome,
    ‘viens Mallika sous le dome edais’ I believe.

    Good call on Wes Anderson film scores, here’s the weather scene from Moonrise Kingdom (in my top 5 films of all time)

    I don’t know if this has been mentioned (can’t see video at work) but the score for Dunkirk really effected me. It didn’t seem to have any real stand out tunes but the quiet thrum in the background that permeated the whole film really built a sense of dread in me.

    Not a film, but The Umbrella Academy In Netflix has brilliant use of a pop song in just about every episode. Preacher and Fargo also have great soundtracks

    The Peter Greenaway/Michael Nyman collaborations were pretty special.

    An American Werewolf in London, in particular, the bit where the delicious Jenny Agutter is having a bit of rumpy pumpy.

    Ooh, good one. Ennio Morricone’s “The Crisis” as used in Seven Pounds had a similar effect for me- it’s a really beautiful, gentle song with constant glaring discordant notes just to let you never really settle.

    But Morricone’s still no Stan Bush

    The link is a YouTube video that describes the use of the Shepard Tone in Dunkirk. A really cool audio illusion that makes it sound like the pitch is ever increasing. A bit like a musical barbershop pole. It was used to build up tension in many scenes

    Local Hero. The Mark Knopfler score is pretty much perfect in every way.

    O Fortuna – Carl Orff. Excalibur.
    The banjo face off in Deliverance is quite iconic too.

    Not sure if ‘ Gladiator ‘ has been mentioned yet, I recall a few good scores in a few scenes.
    Also Terminator 1 and 2 when the main theme kicked in.

    Memo from Turner in Performance was well chosen

    Athgray – interesting reading on the Shepard Tone, it certainly achieved the desired effect when I watched it.
