Soundtracks

These past few days I've been listening to the soundtracks of The Royal Tenenbaums, Rushmore, and The Big Lebowksi. Those are three of my favorite films, and I always knew that one of the things I really enjoyed was the music. But it was not until I started listening to the soundtracks themselves that I realized just how brilliant the music selections were. I can't listen to Nico's "These Days" without seeing Margo and Richie's reunion, The Faces' "Ooh La La" without seeing Max and Miss Fisher dancing, or Kenny Rogers' "Just Dropped In" without seeing the Dude in Gutterballs.

That's some powerful music.
