    i agree. both are/were very good indeed. i especially liked, in the last mohicans, the musical score in the movie from the waterfall scene to the end. very powerful stuff.

    Am I danish?



    Actually I don´t like the movie that much and I think there is something wrong with the music that I can´t put my finger on. It sounds a little bit helpless.



    "Breaking the Waves" OTOH. That film is so perfect and even though I HATE everything 70s and 80s the music in the transition scenes just fits.

    The Little Mermaid soundtrack rule! I bet I still have that memorized.



    I remember listening to that on my walkman in high school. Luckily my friends trusted my integrity in musical choice so it wasn't a source of derision. I like to make it seem like some hyper-intellectual display, but it's more the kid in me loving Disney.



    "yes, you want her

    look at her, you know you do.

    possible she wants you to

    there is one way to ask her.

    it don't take a word,

    not a single word

    you got to kiss the girl"



    Rock on, Sebastian!

    The Song "Goldfinger" is famous. It was one of the best James Bond song ever.

    It's a fantastic song! And I do a wonderful Shirley Bassey (sp?) impression, I don't dress up as her, just the voice. Honest guys. HONEST <img src="graemlins/bugeye.gif" border="0" alt="[Skeptical]" />

    *Gasp* I almost forgot all the Kubrick fanfare!



    Dr. Strangelove

    most notably the closing scene of thermonuclear armageddon



    2001: A Space Odyssey

    made into a cliche but perfectly amazing at the time



    A Clockwork Orange

    ditto. fantastic.



    Those are my favorites from his films.



    I thought about adding The Shining, but I realized that it really just picked up on Psycho's precedent.

    Also can't forget the "Color of Money" soundtrack either. Very good blues and jazz soundtracks.

    Now the film The Celebration . . . That is Great!!



    I also think Soderbergh is incredibly overrated because he panders to everybodies half assed idea of "ART" but doesn't make art just disguised clichees dressed up as art.



    Movie soundtrack:



    the Monkey's movie "HEAD



    what a great movie!!!!!!

    Completely, absolutely, NOT what you would expect from a movie by the Monkeys . . . a document to its time . . . written in part by Jack Nicholson.
