I have lots of favorites: 1) from the "classics" era I like Max Steiner's scores (e.g.,"Gone with the Wind," "Casablanca" and "Now, Voyager," to name just a few); also a fan of Korngold (he did a lot of Errol Flynn's swashbucklers) - 2) loved Duke Ellington's score for "Anatomy of a Murder;" it was groundbreaking in much the same way the film itself was - 3) of the modern films I loved John Barry ("Out of Africa," "Somewhere in Time") and Jerry Goldsmith ("L.A. Confidential," "Hoosiers," "Rudy") who have sadly passed; Patrick Doyle ("Sense and Sensibility," "Henry V," "Gosford Park"); Carter Burwell ("Fargo," "Mystery, Alaska"); and Mark Isham ("A River Runs Through It," "Fly Away Home," "October Sky"). Of the "popular" film composers, I have a few favorite individual scores: John Williams' "Jaws," and James Horner's "Legends of the Fall." Reply #21. Oct 27 13, 12:23 PM |

If I had to select just one single tune, it would be The Imperial March from Star Wars. Reply #24. Dec 10 13, 5:54 AM |

The song the violinist was playing as the Titanic was sinking "Nearer My God, To Thee". Mesmerizing. Reply #25. Apr 17 14, 12:34 AM |
