With the loss of Donald Sutherland, I thought of this one. He played "Hawkeye" Pierce in the original movie, even if Alan Alda is probably the actor most associated with the role due to the longevity of the TV series.

Attending a wedding reception as "cover" for a friend opens the door to some revelations and discoveries.

Plus One - "Not What It Looks Like" comp THIRD PLACE!!

A little fun fact some of you may know, I love writing to horror movie soundtracks. One of the best songs to get your heart racing is In The House In The Heartbeat from 28 Days Later. (the title on the link wrote the name wrong)

I wouldn't say that this is the best song I ever heard in a movie. I wouldn't even say it is a good song, but...

It is of its time (1966) and was very tongue-in-cheek. I think it worked very well in the movie. The faces are even recognisable!

I have never seen the Film, 9 1/2 Weeks, but one of my favourite songs is from it. I love atmospheric music, and for me, This City Never Sleeps is the best track to come from The Eurythmics. Another one where I can close my eyes and let my imagination go. The image of a big city at night (in my case, London) is really brought to life. Put on headphones, crank up the volume just a little, and blank out everything else.

An early Spielberg movie, featuring several unknown (then) youngsters, American Graffiti features some great songs from the fifties. This is one of the few covers from the film by Flash Cadillac and the Continental Kids. At The Hop.
