Y'all've lleft out Dmitri Tiomkin's classic 1954 "The High & The Mighty"-Shame on you.

Yes, that was a very good one. Tiomkin also did High Noon but I despise that picture (as did Howard Hawks, I'm in good company ;)). By the way, Tiomkin also scored Rio Bravo, Hawks' reply to High Noon.

Tom, you're even more of a movie geek than I am but I would add:

Elmer Bernstein's Walk On The Wild Side

Alfred Newman's Mark of Zorro. (They even used his score in the lamentable tv remake with Frank Langella.)

The Egyptian, credited to both Alfred Newman and Bernard Herrman

Dimitri Tiomkin's Guns of Navarone. (Ever notice that his scores always sound the same, as if they were recorded in the same studio by the same engineer.)

Anything by Carter Burwell (In Brueges, Spanish Prisoner, etc.)
