Superlative Soundtracks
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Another day, another list.
This time the editors of Vanity Fair magazine get in on the act with a list of the 50 greatest movie soundtracks. They’ve only released the Top 10 so far, but the rest will be revealed in a special one-time-only magazine — called Movies Rock — being sent out to subscribers to all the magazines from Vanity Fair publisher CondĂ© Nast.
There will also be a two-hour TV special of the same name tied in to the list. It will be taped in Los Angeles on Dec. 2 to air a few days later on CBS. Among the artists scheduled to perform are Beyoncé, Elton John and Carrie Underwood.
Here’s the Top 10, according to a report from Reuters:
- “The Big Chill”
- “American Graffiti”
- “Saturday Night Fever”
- “Trainspotting”
- “Superfly”
- “The Graduate”
- “Pulp Fiction”
- “The Harder They Come”
- “A Hard Day’s Night”
- “Purple Rain”
So, how did they do? Where will “South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut” land? How about “Pretty in Pink” and “The Sound of Music”? Will “Harold and Maude” make it? What’s missing? What just has to be in the next 40?
