  These sorts of lists are very much influenced by the decade you were born.
  For my part, I was born in 1947 and I lived through the so-called Golden Age, Silver Age, Bronze Age, and Millennial age composers.
  

  This list reflects my mania for collecting movie soundtracks for over half a century.
  Your mileage may vary :)

  SOMEWHERE IN TIME. Movie by the same name. If someone could post it I would be so happy to share.

  Always brings a tear to my eye !

  The Godfather.

  I am surprised this has not been mentioned! Very integral to the plot, drama and atmosphere.. Try watching the baptism/murder sequence in G1 - nothing without the music!

  Favorite? Hard to say. Like music I do. But the condensation of Beethoven's 9th for this movie is spectacular.
