Double Star



In 1995, when The Englishman Who Went up a Hill but Came down a Mountain was released, we went to see it in the theater. We particularly enjoyed the soundtrack; so much so that we bought it. Huge mistake. Nearly every track on the CD sounded exactly alike. Somehow the music that had seemed so inspiring during the movie was unbelievably repetitive and boring on its own. On the other hand, I couldn’t wait to get home from the theater after seeing Guardians of the Galaxy so I could order that soundtrack. I’m saving that CD for our next road trip. The other movie soundtracks that will be coming with us are You’ve Got Mail, Sleepless in Seattle, A Very Goofy Movie and Shrek. I’ve thought about ordering the soundtrack to American Graffiti to keep them company. I may bring one or two more; it’s a long trip. Do you have any suggestions?
