goodnightboy - I agree with you, too. Your post also reminded me of the opening scenes to Apocalpse Now, with The Doors' "The End." It's the opening scene, which also happens to be the last scene, and the lyrics are the haunting voice of Jim Morrison singing, "This is the end..." It's genius.

Oh, that reminds me of
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind now, when the opening credits (which is quite a bit after the opening scene) has Jim Carrey crying in his car with Beck's 'Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometimes' playing - which fit the mood well. But because of the twistedness of the movie, that scene is actually from later on, but it's not the same as the the closing scene of Jim Carrey chasing Kate Winslet across the snowy beach as, yes, Beck's song plays again. And this time it is just so incredible, the way the scene and the song (the sound and the lyrics, the overall mood of the song) come together so perfectly.
Didn't watch
Apocalypse Now, but it sounds good
