TIL the term "Spaghetti Western" refers to Western films made in Europe. It's called such because most of these films were directed by Italians. (en.wikipedia.org)

I think the score for Cinema Paradiso is probably also up there among the best.

I believe that Tarantino wanted Morricone's music for very long, and used existing musics for Django and other movies, but he finally managed to have original scores for Hateful 8 (which won the Oscar).
