The musical exchange between ethnic groups in John Sayles superb film Matewan is very powerful, as is the rest of the music in the film (and the movie itself). Don't miss this one!
Also, the soprano sax (I think) rendition of "Just a Closer Walk With Thee," played by George Lewis, that runs behind the opening credits and first scene of Heartland brought me close to tears. I went back the next evening with a cassette recorder and taped it. That, too, is one of the great recent films. Be sure to see it.
