I always say that the process of making films does not only include directors and actors, but a wide range of people some of whom I'm trying to celebrate in my most recent posts. I've been thinking about listing my favourite film soundtracks for a long time and here they are!
It's just so intertwined,
so important.
Like the Hitchcock ones where they kind of inform each
other and become this larger thing as a result."

"The Sound of Silence" - Simon & Garfunkel from The Graduate (Mike Nichols, 1967)
"And in the naked light I saw
ten thousand people maybe more
people talking without speaking
people hearing without listening
people writing songs that voices never share
noone dare, disturb the sound of silence."
"Mrs. Robinson" - Simon & Garfunkel from The Graduate (Mike Nichols, 1967)

Our nation turns it's lonely eyes to you.
What's that you say, Mrs. Robinson.
Jolting Joe has left and gone away,
Hey hey hey."
