In addition to being one of the world's most popular DJs, Paul Oakenfold has been an increased presence in Hollywood recently, creating the score for 'Swordfish' as well as contributing cues to films such as 'Collateral' and the popular 'Shrek' series. "I've been doing more and more film and enjoying it, really," he tells Spinner. Oakenfold is on tap for three scores in the upcoming year, including the Danny DeVito/Eliza Dushku vehicle 'Nobel Son.' So as an active member of the film-scoring community, who better than Oakey to reflect on some of his favorite combinations of music and movies? And he even threw in a sixth as a bonus.

1. '3:10 to Yuma' (2007 version): It took a classic cowboy film and turned it around in terms of music and added a lot of new sounds. I was really impressed with that score.

2. ' Elizabeth: The Golden Age': It's a good score because they've married two composers, one from Bollywood and one from the West, and it works really well. That's visually a good one to see.

3. 'Midnight Cowboy': I remembering sitting there and watching [this] with my dad. I even sampled 'Midnight Cowboy' and based my big hit, 'Starry-Eyed Surprise,' around that.

4. 'Easy Rider': I revisited [this] the other day just to see how they worked with a lot of different cues.

5. 'Blade Runner': It's in everyone's classic list.

5a. 'The Insider': One of my favorite films; I thought the score on that was fantastic.
