    Some of my favorites

    Disney’s animated Robin Hood - some amazing folk songs, o brother where art thou has a lot of great old timey/folksy songs too

    The Third Man - the zither to end all zithers

    anything by John Williams or Hans Zimmer for that big epic sound with recurring motifs- star wars, Indiana Jones, interstellar, etc

    Baby Driver - lots of variety, the chase sequence with Hocus Pocus by Focus is amazing

    The Blues Brothers - not just great blues, tons of soul, motown, etc with a lot of energy

    The Guest - parody of '80s action/thriller style movies, soundtrack is lots of electronic & synth, feels a little like a darker version of the Drive soundtrack which is also great

    A couple directors that have a very specific sound direction/profiles to them too are Wes Anderson, Quentin Tarantino, and John Carpenter.

    Soundtrack or score?

    Soundtrack: Judgement Night. Paired hip hop artists with rock and metal bands. Biohazard and Onyx fucking tear it up. And Faith No More and Boo Yaa Tribe sounds incredible.

    Score: Terminator 2. James Cameron is incredible about quality sound in his films. One of the best directors for sound in the biz.

    Beauty and the Beast

    But also I recently saw the comedy Bottoms, and thought Charlie XCX did a great job with that soundtrack
