Recent one: The Mighty Rio Grande by This Will Destroy You in Room

Posted by: russ1 on May 31, 13:39 in response to lobogotti's post Movie Poll: Use of a song that made a movie scene flat...

That sort of post rock is pretty "cinematic" music anyway and it's treading in the footsteps of Friday Night Lights and the same track being used in Moneyball but it just such an emotional moment of release in the movie that I can't hear it without thinking about that scene.Ā

Mad World (Donnie Darko) and The Unanswered Question (Lola rennt) {nm} second gary May 31, 15:40

both top notch! {nm} lobogotti May 31, 15:42

Ella Fitzgerald's cover of "Get Thee Behind Me Satan" and Jo Stafford's cover of "No Other Love" are also on my longlist. {nm} second gary May 31, 15:52

Both in "The Master," of course. {nm} second gary May 31, 15:53
