13. Peter Greenaway and Michael Nyman
In 1980, British film maker Greenaway produced The Falls – a fantastical encyclopedia of flight-associated material. The score was composed by Michael Nyman who went on to work with Greenaway on his best-known films - The Draughtsman's Contract (pictured), A Zed & Two Noughts, The Belly of an Architect, Drowning by Numbers, The Cook, the Thief, His Wife and Her Lover, and Prospero's Books.
