And...best soundtrack of the year? Rules of Attraction?
My favorite soundtrack of the year, so far, is Rules of Attraction.
That movie totally bombed, somehow, but I kinda liked it. It had some
sex, drugs and rock and roll, which is sorely lacking in many movies
of this PG-13 era. It was also great to see James Van Der Beek trying
to shed his Dawson's Creek image! In one scene he tries to hang
himself, then slash his wrist, then OD on pills, only to wake up
in his own pee.
And it had pretty good music. From The Cure to Blondie to Donovan.
They don't have everything on the soundtrack which was in the movie,
but they do have the European Vacation bit from the movie, which is
hilarious.
I also liked the soundtrack for Not Another Teen Movie, mostly for
Goldfinger doing "99 Red Baloons." Never did see the movie though.
