So I know you have favorite songs in movies but what movie had a song that nailed what was going on in the movie at the time. One that really made an impression on you. Mine is in "Shampoo" when Jimi Hendrix "Manic Depression" is playing. A movie moment I will never forget. I think I was 14 when I first saw it. I saw it last night on TCM unedited and in letterbox again. Hal Ashby is incredible.
As it all starts falling apart for Beatty's character the tune comes on. He runs to try to catch up to different people trying to get away from him to no avail. I love the chaos portrayed as he goes back in the house through the party after not "catching" anyone of the two he ran after. The strobe lights flashing during the songs guitar solo so you just get a few shots of the disgust and frustration on his face. The whole "Party" scene is great. It became my standard for "cool".
