Buried.

Banger after banger

The Last of the Mohicans Once heard, you cannot escape its beauty.

[–] 418_im_a_teapot@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago

Ransom is underrated IMO.

2001: A Space Odyssey

Just epic classical music.

Spirited Away

Joe Hisaishi fits the fantastical setting perfectly. Lots of bittersweet, exciting, and meditative moods, each placed in the perfect scene.

Tarantino's movies usually have a great song selection.

Full Metal Jacket

Hearing "Bird is the Word" juxtaposed with the Vietnam War is just a crazy choice that paid off.

Nobody (2021)

Turned me on to Luther Allison. Not a "best soundtrack" but it definitely stands out.

Garden State

[–] blackstrat@lemmy.fwgx.uk 1 points 2 months ago

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen has a fantastic soundtrack. Can really push a system to its limits.

The Abyss really does something for me, can’t quite put my finger on it

[–] hogmomma@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Most people, as evidenced by the comments, don't know the difference between soundtrack and score. Either that or they DO know the difference and are choosing to answer as if they didn't.

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Then give us some of your pieces as comparison

[–] hogmomma@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

The music Howard Shore wrote for Lord of the Rings is the score; Into the West is soundtrack. The music Basil Poledouris wrote for Starship Troopers is the score; Fade into You (the song played during the fight scene between Rico and Zander) is soundtrack.
