Honestly, I think it was the Ry Cooder score that initially got me interested in the film as well. This was quite a few years ago before I started watching Wenders' films.

It's one of those perfect scores. Never intrudes, just adds to the mood. And with a master like Ry at the helm, you can't really go wrong.

Thanks for the rec on Tender Mercies. Definitely going to check that one out!

I'm all over Badlands. Been looking forward to this one for a good while now.
