I like a lot of the music from Wes Anderson's films .. and Amelie OST was superb (Comptine d'um autre ete).
What about you guys?  | |

in between all this, his 1999 album was still in the charts in 83 and he was releasing singles, he recorded protoge albums for other people like sheila e, the time, appolonia, and recorded his follow up album around the world in a day. around that time he usually finished at least one album before the next one was out, and also has umpteen videos for songs that no-one has ever heard
his follow up movie under the cherry moon was shot in colour, altho released in black and white

Aside from the traditional orchestrated soundtracks associated with the "Western & War Film" and the song based "Stage Musicals & Rock Sound Track" type of movie, my personal favourites are "Local Hero - Mark Knopfler", "Educating Rita - David Hentschel" and "Southern Comfort - Ry Cooder".
The "Going Home - Theme of the Local Hero", is particularly uplifting finale to a film.
