    Recently watched “Lean on Pete” and found the use of Selena Gomez’s “The Heart Wants What It Wants” to be used extremely effecting from a narrative stampoint.

    Non-spoilers but halfway through the film plays the chorus of “The future that we hold is so unclear; But I’m not alive until you call; And I’ll bet the odds against it all” both a cathartic summary of the protagonist’s journey so far and the impending future.

    What’s your own favourite uses of music supervision / needle drops in films?

    I, Tonya. Devil Woman playing the moment Lovana was shown standing on the ice with little Tonya. I love the fact that they used that song

    When Gwyneth Paltrow gets off the bus in “The royal Tenenbaums” and “These Days” by Nico starts playing. Chills every time!

    From recent years, certainly the “Too Late to Turn Back Now” drop in BlacKkKlansman. Absolutely stunning.

    Just watched François Ozon’s “Été 85” and holy hell the scene in the club with Rod Stewart’s “Sailing” is pure cinema.

    The use of Mozart’s Requiem near the end of Amadeus is striking.

    In general, the overall use of Mozart’s music in that film is incredible.

    I hated American Hustle but I liked it when I Feel Love played in that scene with Adams and Cooper dancing in the club.

    Solidarity with the striking writers. Pay them the wages they are owed for bringing us the content we are all on here because of!
