Title: Favorite Original Soundtracks?
Post by: orator on June 27, 2009, 12:07:48 PM
Mine:

Assassination of Jesse James
The Fountain
Solaris
The Proposition (every track Nick Cave keeps his cheesy and distracting voice off of)

Yours?

I like what Jon Brion did on Punchdrunk Love.

My favorite movie is Night of the Shooting Stars, which has a great and very moving score.

Maybe some people don't count this, but I always really liked the music for the movie Kids.  Haven't seen the movie in over 10 years, but I do listen to the soundtrack once and a while.  Also, There Will Be Blood is a good, unusual soundtrack.

There Will Be Blood a la Radiohead's Mr. Greenwood.

Bernard Hermann's Pino Donaggio's work on Carrie is some of the best schlock ever written.

Yes. That is a great one.

That's the one where Johnny Depp plays some dude John Keats and hangs out with a guy named No One right?

Do you guys mean "Dead Man"?  It was so so, imo, Crispin Glover was pretty funny, as usual.

I like the soundtrack to The Birds.  There's no traditional music in there, but the electronic bird sounds, which would technically be considered sound effects / foley, have a musical quality, like a blurring of music and sound effects.

Can't remember the composer, but the music from L'AVVENTURA is cool.

Yo La Tengo's soundtrack to Old Joy is really good.
