There are lots of great motion picture scores. While I could list many which I would rate higher as musical compositions, I don't believe that any score is such a perfect complement to what appears on the screen as what Bernard Herrmann composed for The Ghost And Mrs. Muir (1947). A faithful re-recording is available online. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAiN9R1RAlI

Re: Looking for movies with good score/musical background.
Here is a list of movies that have soundtracks that are memorable to me and which were not already mentioned. They are a mix of many different genres, but even the horror movies aren't terribly frightening. I excluded musicals, movies about music, and animated films since that would have more than doubled the list. Some of these movies are phenomenal and others would probably be forgettable but for the music.
