			   							I would say (in no specific order):
 - Robin Hood (great symphonic score)
 - The three musketeers (dito)
 - Die hard (a classic in action scoring although the boot is better than the legit release
 - Die hard 2 (with a little bit of Sibelius)
 - The adventures of Baron Munchhausen (as funny as Gilliams film)
 - Open range ( interesting musical interpretation of the wild west)
 - The Krays (don´t know if to love or to hate but shows Kamen´s jazzy side - besides Julia Migenes Bittersweet is a revelation)

			   							- Don Juan de Marco (romantic)- Brasil (great variations on the theme Brasil)
 - Suspect (in the style of Bernard Herrmann)
 - company business (with a Russian sound, I love it)

 Don't forget "Band Of Brothers"! One of his very best.

			   							How about some scores with an attitude, beyond the usual blockbuster crashbangboom?
 
 I completely agree with Sijbold's selection and would only add "Edge Of
 Darkness" and - of course - "Mona Lisa".
