Is the rest of the soundtrack as good as the main theme?
Also, someone told me the original version is mozart's is it true?
And finally Are there other soundtrack so emotional and great you can mention? I'd like to listen to them. Thanks.

Personally, I love the soundtrack to Requiem for a Dream - Clint Mansell and the Kronos Quartet do a fine job of crating mood and reworking instruments to play counter to their usual "mood and tone"
The soundtrack was composed by Clint Mansell and performed by the Kronos Quartet. It is notable for its use of sharp, string instruments to create a cold and discomforting sound from instruments frequently used for their warmth and softness (an effect pioneered in film soundtracks by Bernard Hermann).
The soundtrack has been widely praised and has subsequently been used in various forms in trailers for other films and series, including The Da Vinci Code, Sunshine, Saw, Lost,I am Legend and the video game Assassin's Creed. More specifically, a version of the recurring theme was re-orchestrated for the The Lord of The Rings: The Two Towers film trailer. This version is often known as "Requiem for a Tower". It has also been featured in many other adverts and trailers, and as re-mixes on other artists' albums.
The soundtrack also confirmed its popularity with the remix album Requiem for a Dream: Remixed, which contained new mixes of the music by Paul Oakenfold, Josh Wink, Jagz Kooner and Delerium, amongst others.
Other soundtracks to recommend? Perhaps Clint Mansell again, for the movie "Pi"
I also love the soundtrack to the movie "The Mission" by Ennio Morricone (he has several soundtracks that are worthy of mention: Cinema Paradiso, The Untouchables, etc)
Also check out those by Danny Elfman (1. "The Nightmare Before Christmas" - "Batman" - "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" -
"Edward Scissorhands" - etc)
