You missed out the wonderful Taxi Driver---Bernard Hermann (his last great contribution to the movies).

i felt i was at risk of going overboard on my all-time favourite soundtrack composer (one of my all time favourite composers full-stop, in fact).
i could just as easily have cited north by north-west, the magnificent ambersons, the day the earth stood still or, the lesser known but no less astounding, 'on dangerous ground'.
i doubt if we'll see his like again - at least, in a cinematic context.

i have to agree with Holden, definately the crow. The Terminator isnt that bad either. and the matrix. and the theme tune to rita sue and bob too. ok joking about the later but it is a quite funny film

correctamundo.
robert ryan - one of the greats, imo: the set up, crossfire, act of violence, clash by night, the naked spur...
