5 top Uses of Radiohead in Film

Radiohead: Everyone's favorite band. Well, not everybody -- some fans surely abandoned them sometime after Amnesiac -- but they are still as culturally relevant as always: these were on 'SNL' earlier this Saturday evening and 2 days later, performed on the special hour-lengthy episode of 'The Colbert Report.' (To express nothing of the NY City shows at Roseland, which offered in a nanosecond.) However, Radiohead is not only a TV-carrying out group company directors like to make use of the band's music within their films (based on IMDb, they have been featured in over 30). It adds hipster cred towards the movie and makes each scene appear much much deeper than it truly is. Knowing that, Moviefone is definitely the five best uses from the British band's tracks in film. 'Romeo + Juliet' 'Talk Show Host' This song occurs the very first time we're brought to Leonardo DiCaprio's Romeo. At that time, roughly 1.4 trillion women fell deeply in love with the near future superstar. (We're able to only find this scene in Italian -- because of @cristimoreano for pointing this out). 'Twilight' '15 step' While lots of music writers cried foul their beloved band had been utilized in 'Twilight,' it did expose 1000's of youthful vampire fans to Radiohead. Plus, it had been only used throughout the finish credits, so quit your whining writers. '50/50' 'High and Dry' The approaching celebrities Frederick Gordon-Levitt, who already has music cred together with his Hit Record Joe project. Adding this classic Radiohead track towards the film multiplies that cred tenfold. 'Children of Men' 'Life inside a Glasshouse' Among the couple of moments within this movie where prozac isn't needed. This specific scene features Michael Caine's stoner character, Jasper, smoking pot with Clive Owen's Theo, all as the closing track towards the 2001 album 'Amnesiac' plays without anyone's knowledge. 'Vanilla Sky' 'Everything In The Right Place' Cameron Crowe knows his music. Therefore it made sense the opening scene in 'Vanilla Sky' would use probably the most memorable opening guitar chords from an album -- 2000's 'Kid A' -- in the recent past. BONUS! 'Anonymous' 'Everything in the Right Place' Believe to advertise your film that informs the storyplot from the guy who really authored Shakespeare's plays then using a song which was recorded almost 400 years later?
