Rain less...Rushmore


Vanity Fair has released their list of the best film soundtracks ever:

1. Purple Rain
2. A Hard Day's Night
3. The Harder They Come
4. Pulp Fiction
5. The Graduate
6. Superfly
7. Trainspotting
8. Saturday Night Fever
9. American Graffiti
10. The Big Chill

One could make a good case that the entire list is rendered bankrupt by the inclusion of The Big Chill. Not to mention the fact that several of these are simply massively popular albums; that's just too easy. I have to say that Trainspotting is a nice surprise (Born Slippy anyone?). But it would have been exciting to see Rushmore in the top ten.
