What? If you&#8217;re going for a colossal failure, let&#8217;s revisit <em>Ishtar<\/em>. At least that&#8217;s about a couple of song writers.) I appreciate the inclusion of two of my favorite song\/scenes from film, the use of &#8220;The Madison&#8221; in <em>Band of Outsiders<\/em>\u00a0and &#8220;California Dreamin'&#8221; in <em>Chungking Express<\/em> (and snappy little films, to boot).<\/p>\n<p>However, I&#8217;m guessing that you, like me, will also take umbrage at a few of the entries. What?!: <em>These Days<\/em>\u00a0is rated higher than <em>Saturday Night Fever<\/em>? And if you&#8217;re going to include the great &#8220;Heart of the Sunrise&#8221; from <em>Buffalo 66<\/em>, why not include the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/video\/imdb\/vi1102840089\/\" target=\"_blank\">trailer (which, IMHO, is one of the best film trailers ever spliced together)?!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>There are some glaring omissions.
