The 25 Movies With the Best Music Scores of All Time, Ranked by Collider
"Film is a visual medium, sure, but very few movies succeed without also having something by way of great music. If bold visuals capture your eyes while striking music appeals to your ears, then you've probably got something at hand that you can get swept up in. After all, music has arguably been vital to cinema longer than dialogue, given live music tended to accompany screenings of movies that were otherwise silent. So, to look at some of the best scores of all time and sing their praises is a monumental task. For the following, these scores are essential to the success of the movies they're attached to, and most of them are genuinely great enough to enjoy independently of the film, too. To keep things a little varied, there's a limit of one score per composer, with the exception of John Williams and Ennio Morricone, because they're John Williams and Ennio Morricone (they get two each)." - collider.com
