The music from Clint Eastwoods "Flags of our Fathers" and "Letters from Iwo Jima". Haunting theme which is hard to remove from the mind when heard.

I'm glad someone mentioned John Barry. he did two of the most beautiful soundtrack songs ... (in my opinion)

Born Free (majestic!)
Somewhere in Time (as lovely and moving as the movie)

In some ways, (though I do adore the movie), I think the theme to "somewhere In Time", actually outweigh's the film. I can listen to that music completely void of the film and be greatly
moved!
