Rocky is a good one (it's on my i-pod, when I'm on the treadmill!)

Don't laugh at these; I own a karaoke machine & they're my favorites...

Some movies have little or nothing in the way of original sound track, but borrow existing music and use it to perfect effect, to enhance both the movie as a whole and the scene where a given piece is heard. A film that uses classical music well in this way is "Breaking Away." Two examples of movies that use popular music to great effect are "American Graffiti" and "Remember the Titans."

Aside from the "musical" movies that I love, "The Music Man", "West Side Story", and "Grease" and more recently "Moulon Rouge", the music/soundtrack from the movie "Titanic" is my favorite. The music and Celine Dion's "My heart will Go On" really put the emotion and excitement into that movie, and helped to make it the great movie experience that it is. Awesome.

The Big Chill - what is it Kevin Kline says in the movie, there is no music after the Motown era?

Trivia question - what role did Kevin Costner play in The Big Chill?
