That was a stunning, unforgettable use of music, as was the Lygetti as the theme of the slab artifact.
Scorsese's movies are full of wonderful correlations, contrasts and commentaries between pop music and screen image...starting with Mean Streats. Goodfellas, the whole darn film is a great soundtrack commentary. I also loved "Stardust" playing during the midnight plane ride in The Aviator, and the Bach during the test flight.
I've also got a soft spot for Say Anything - Lloyd Dobbler's (John Cusack) midnight boombox serenade of Diane Court (Ione Skye) with Peter Gabriel's "In Your Eyes".
There are tons more.
