Music In The Movies
The other day, I heard a couple of notes of Simple Minds' Don't You (Forget About Me). Of course, I immediately remembered the final scene in The Breakfast Club, when Judd Nelson walks away from the school. It was such a perfect match of film and song. It got me thinking, what are some of the best and worst uses of popular music in the movies?
And, ironically, Simple Minds didn't even write the title track -- ubiquitous 1980s producer Keith Forsey, who also worked with Psychedelic Furs, among others, did.
