Recently (read: over the last 24 hours), I have become very interested in film scores. This is the extent to which I have no life. This is also an indication to my having just watched Schindler's List. And cried. For the zillionth time. Because Hollywood has a special knack for making gut-wrenching Nazi movies.
Now, because I am L-A-Z-Y, and because I have such an intelligent readership, I will ask you a question that will doubtlessly save me lots of time researching the best (and hopefully saddest) film scores.
So, my darling readers, what is your favourite film score?

^^^ They're all great movies, too. :-)
Just re-read your post and noticed you said film SCORES not SOUNDTRACKS.. d'oh! Well, ignore the 2,3 and 4.
1 and 5 are scores, and they are amazing.
I also liked the scores of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Donnie Darko.
I loved the Eternal Sunshine score. I've only heard "Mad World" off Donnie Darko. Thanks for the recommendations bajagafaga! I'll definitely check them out :)
That's my top 10 list, and the best thing(s) that made me love them...

The Lord of the Rings trilogy
Some people find the story a bit excessive in fantasy
The acting, directing, effects, music and everything else is great
