With 2010 coming to a close, and the imminent arrival of an entirely fresh, unexplored, and unpredictable decade of cinema, what better time to start bombarding you with top ten lists of past highlights? We’ve done top ten posters, top ten trailers and top ten Christmas movies (and an alternate Christmas list for those who disagreed with the first).

This time: scores and soundtracks. There is a distinction between the two, but it’s murky, and as more and more films are using a mix of both original scores and pre-existing tracks, who are we to try to keep them separate?  Hit the jump for more.

MOTORCYCLE DIARIES’ Walter Salles and Jose Rivera to Adapt AMERICAN RUST

While Steven Soderbergh released his epic-that-no-one-saw, “Che”, I found 2004′s “The Motorcycle Diaries” to be an intimate and compelling of Che Guevara before he became Che Guevara.  It rarely felt like an origin story and it made Guevara’s tale one of “I succeeded and you didn’t because I was me and you are you.”  The duo of director Walter Salles and writer Jose Rivera made that film work (along with a terrific performance by Gael Garcia Bernal) and I’m thrilled to report that they’ll be re-teaming to adapt the novel, “American Rust”.  Hit the jump for details.
