Plastic Bertrand in 127 Hours, with the flashback to the kids partying in the snow. Perfect!

Sunshine and 28 Days Later soundtracks are so amazing. Also, Trainspotting.

Excellent article! A great retrospective of Danny Boyle's eclectical choice of music that turns into epic some scenes. My very personal choice should be Sunshine (shivering all over everytime I hear that melody), by John Murphy and of course, Sigur RÃ¶s, who I discover after watching 127 days.

Oh man, no Sunshine on the list! That was a brilliant soundtrack… and even the end credits track Avenue of Hope, is bewitching.

Also, even though the film Traffic used it better, it's worth mentioning the use of Brian Enos song, Ascent: An Ending, in 28 Days Later just because its such a great track.

The All Saints song does not close out The Beach. It is used during the night time sex scene. The last song used (credits) is Lonely Soul by UNKLE and Richard Ashcroft. Speaking of that film, I think it has the best music moments. You failed to mention the Blur Song, On Our Own, used in the montage of Leo alone in the woods which even turns into a video game at one point and the Brian Eno song, Spinning Away, covered by none other than Sugar Ray. But believe me, it's good.

The entire soundtrack 1 of Trainspotting should be the top 10. Also, in Sunshine, the later to be released Underworld's "To Heal" should be there.

Sorry, but you forgot Vacuuming Completely Nude in Paradise, and the "Sell Song" (on YouTube as "Best Ever Motivational Sales Tape") sung by Timothy Spall.

Yeah, I noticed that too, and then realised that life is much better when you don't spend your life ragequitting over semantics.

As Neil points out, Trainspotting is set in Scotland. That's such a big mistake I stopped reading there. Piss-poor.

"The movie, up until this point, was a decidedly raucous account of the lives of a handful of English heroin addicts"

WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! It's a movie about SCOTTISH heroin addicts. England and Scotland are different countries – look it up!
