o takemitsu's film music...kwaidan is still my favorite. woman in the dunes and face of another are also great. ran too, but those three films are brilliant.
hukkle is also one of my favorite sound movies.
jacques tati:
"monsieur hulot's vacation" and "playtime" are both brilliant for sound.
the driving sequencein tarkovsky's "solaris" is great.
i dislike soundtracks or music for films that push you around, that tell you what to think. i like music for films that does something else, enhances or emphasizes elements within the film or, like takemitsu's sound does in the first segment of kwaidan, turns your perception of what you're seeing inside out.
just watch it and you'll see.
other bits i really like:
in la haine, the sequence with the dj who puts the speakers up in an hlm window and spins a mashup involving edith piaf.
clockwork orange, of course. the chain fight sequence to rossini's the thieving magpie in particular.
von trier's dancer in the dark. one of the best musicals ever.
