Movies employing music in a great way.


I find certain directors are more aware of great music, and of how to integrate it into their films, than are others. Jim Jarmusch, Martin Scorsese, The Coen Brothers, and David Lynch come to mind. But maybe my favorite use of music is in the movie The Last Picture Show; lots of Hank Williams on the radio in the old pickup truck driven in the movie, perfectly reflecting the grim, dying small-town and sepia-hued Texas landscape.

"Breaking Away" features many popular Classical pieces interspersed throughout the movie that fit with the particular scenes used in.
I really like this movie! Plus the strong and silent lead character throughout... the Masi Gran Criterium!!!
