    The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly has one of the greatest soundtracks of all time. It is timeless and deep.

    The final shootout in "Once Upon a Time in the West" - Charles Bronson and Henry Fonda. My very favorite movie of all time.



    Sergio Leone would actually have him write and play the music, then direct the actors based on that. The reverse of other movies, and one of the reasons why the music is such an integral part of his films.

    Rest in peace, sir.

    Seems appropriate. RIP

    "Warriors"

    Out of every 100 men, ten shouldn't even be there, eighty are just targets. Nine are the real fighters and we are lucky to have them for they make the battle. Ah, but the one...one is a Warrior, and he will bring all the others back.

    Well damn. The guy really was the "other" John Williams.

    No one else really pulled off the stuff he did.
    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    Chuck, we miss ya man.
