"Gladiator" still thrills me and I have clear visions of the scenes listening to the tracks.

Strength and Honour(Maximus had a British accent, lol)

I could write a list as long as your arm, so I'll limit it to a few, in no particular order:

A ton of scores by the recently-deceased Jerry Goldsmith, including: Star Trek-The Motion Picture (I don't even like Star Trek), The Ghost and the Darkness, Patton, Rudy, First Knight and The Wind and the Lion

Signs--contemplative and cool sense-of-wonder score by James Newton Howard; he wrote one of the most beautiful end titles for the lousy movie Flatliners

American Beauty--Thomas Newman

Obsession--Bernard Herrmann

The Magnificent Seven--the also recently-deceased Elmer Bernstein

The Big Country--Jerome Moross, including the great horse-chase scene, worth the price of the CD alone

Dances With Wolves--John Barry

King of Kings--Miklos Rozsa

Seven and The Lord of the Rings--Howard SHore; the first one of the creepiest scores ever, the second one of the most varied and beautiful

Bed of Roses--Michael COnvertino, a great ambient score by the most underused composer in Hollywood

Ack, I'm just getting warmed up, I'll leave it at this or I'll be here all night.

I'll vote for that song in Chariots of Fire that was played at the funeral in the film and at President Ronald Reagan's funeral.

Second that.

Oh and Pulp Fiction and Reservior Dogs (you'll never hear Stuck in the Middle with You the same way again).

The soundtrack from "Guns of Navaronne" (sp?)

I still have the LP somewhere.

I'd like to see the movie on DVD.

'The Untouchables' is another fine Ennio Morricone score, probably the best film composer ever.

the music from the Boondock Saints

I watched that movie last weekend. The music was just perfect for the scene where they go into the gun room.

All time best soundtracks:

1.) "Gladiator"

2.) "Rocky"

3.) "Raiders of the Lost Ark"

It was a hymn from We we Soldiers that played at the Reagan funeral.





It was both--the song from WE Were Soldiers and Jerusalem were both played at the funeral.

The Guns of Navarone is a great film and was released on DVD over three years ago. I know - I picked mine up the day it came out! :-)

It's not exactly a movie but the Victory at Sea score is great.

This is my all-time favorite, really.
