    There are so many great ones, but the one I think would be irreplaceable is dances with wolves.

    Paris, Texas. Pure desolate vastness, pain and longing and loneliness. The whole soundtrack is out of this world. Absolute pitch-perfect genius by Ry Cooder setting the tone for what is also a phenomenal film in its own right.

    Reservoir Dogs

    Tarantino has a good feel for scores in general, but this one is perfect.

    Not my favorite because I don’t really pick favorites but I remember that forgettable vampire movie, the one with Aaliyah, had a pretty good soundtrack. If you like early 2000s rock.

      Yes, the hip-hop & rock collaboration!

      My memory of the film is not so negative, but then:

      1. I was a sucker for 90s action, especially with a hip-hop angle.
      2. It’s been three decades since I’ve seen it (but been listening to the soundtrack pretty much ever since).

      My favourite mid-90s US heist movie soundtrack was Dead Presidents, a film that didn’t get a sequel but whose soundtrack album was so successful it did!

      Admittedly not original compositions, more a “greatest soul hits of the 70s” compilation.
