Favourite Movie Soundtracks?
A soundtrack or score can quite often be an integral part of a part in the effectiveness of certain scenes in movies and indeed the movie as whole yet they can be often overlooked,so i was wondering what are your favourite movie soundtracks?
Here are a few of mine....
Platoon-This soundtrack contains some of the best recording artists of the era including Otis Redding,The Doors,Smokey Robinson and Aretha Franklin,however i find the use of Barber's Adagio for strings in key scenes of the movie to be truly haunting.
Halloween-If ever a soundtrack fitted a movie like a glove this imo is the one.This simple synthesizer based score both mirrors and enhances the on screen tension,terror and sense of impending doom.
Blade Runner-Vangelis's dark futuristic soundtrack gels with the mood and the ambience of the movie.Even now this score does not sound dated which is testement to the skill with which it was executed.
