The UK’s favourite film soundtrack revealed

Who will be named as the nation's favourite score?

The UK’s favourite film soundtrack has been named as the score to Titanic.

The survey was carried out by London’s Royal Albert Hall – with film fans voting for the 1997 epic beating the likes of Chariots Of Fire, Star Wars and Jurassic Park.

“You never forget a great film score: from the epic to the intimate, movie music has an unparalleled ability to evoke emotion,” said Artistic Director at the Royal Albert Hall, Lucy Noble. “We asked film fans to pick their favourite, and there’s no doubt about the winner: James Horner’s sumptuous, heartbreaking score for Titanic.”
