Just thought I'd pop the question as to what everyone's favourite soundtrack to films are. My personal favourites would be Gladiator and Apollo 13.

I don't really notice the music when I watch a film, the last one I can put my finger on was Rocky 4 I think. Think I had it on tape

Hans Zimmer is the composer. Have a Google it'll surprise you how many films he has had his music in.

I went to see the film Hunger some years back. David Holmes (who did Oceans 11, Out of Sight etc) did the soundtrack and was giving a talk about it.

The first question was "David, I couldn't help noticing there's only about one minute of music in the film".

He replied by saying there's way too much music in most films and he decided it wasn't needed in the movie.

I work with a guy who is a classically trained musician, we get to chose what music we play and he often works through the works of movie composers. We had the John williams week (bit samey) we had hans zimmer week (surprisingly large body of work) but a particular highlight was the day we did LotR
