Music looks relevant to the theme and times and is a trend among many movies to take the Simon And Garfunkel approach to add some validity and romance to a movie. Normally I would look at a soundtrack like this and say "really?" The music editor took a very easy road approach but considering the source content I think it works. I am glad there is some Philip Glass in there and a little sprinkle of Flight of the Valkyrie. I personally prefer that style for a movie like this but hey, you gotta sell cds right?
