Guess the Score XXII: The Olympic Edition [FINISHED]

(My apologies to Ravi - the previous game has not been formally ended, but it's been several days since the thread was updated so I assume it's over.)

It’s an Olympic summer, so the theme of this game is sport. All the clips (except one!) come from films with a sporting theme (the sports are not necessarily Olympic sports).

As usual, one point for the composer, one for the film. Unlike most of my games, this one is skewed enormously towards the present day – there aren’t that many older films about sport where I have a score to make a clip from! The 25 clips are in chronological order (except where there’s more than one clip from the same year) – originally I was going to put them in a random order, but this seemed to horrify Alan. There are 17 different composers represented.

The clips are here:

The clues:
1: Not a tricky start. The film’s name is also the name of the sport and the composer is one of the most recognisable there’s ever been.
2: The most famous sports film of all, and the most famous sports film score. Doing a sport-themed Guess the Score game and not including this would be like doing an Indian-themed Guess the Barefoot Pacifist Who Had a Biopic About Him Directed by Richard Attenborough and not including Gandhi.
3: A completely unreleased score but a real gem – for a dreadful film.
4: A legendary director earned a lot of scorn for this highly-peculiar idea – but at least it’s a proper sport.
5: This isn’t actually a sport film at all, but who could fail to love this fantastic music? I only included it because I couldn’t find one of the scores I was going to include and needed a last-minute replacement!
6: This must surely be the most rousing individual piece of film music I’ve ever heard. This score has never been released on CD – this clip is taken from a compilation – but I’d be first in the queue if it were.
7: The director of this film has worked with most of the top composers of the past 25 years. The star of the film tried to get the score thrown out – but the album went on to become one of the biggest-selling film scores of all time.
8: Great tune, synth cheesiness – who else could it be?
9: An extremely obscure film, and one with the most peculiar title I’ve come across. Very famous composer, though.
10: Synths dominate this popular score – but what a theme to end it!
11: Americans do love making films about this utterly dull sport (which also featured in clip 7 - and 9 - and 10!), but fortunately it has inspired some great film music.
12: This much-beloved composer had a real, personal connection to the sport being chronicled – and it shows in his gorgeous score.
13: A silly little film gets a rousing, stirring score from one of the genre’s most famous practitioners.
14: No clue needed here, surely.
15: The most growling, angry score ever written for a sports film.
16: Some much-deserved recognition for a wonderful film composer who rarely gets to score films as serious as this one.
17: The second time this composer has appeared in this game – but working on this film was a truly miserable experience for him/her.
18: One of this composer’s less well-known scores, it’s very pleasant – but rather derivative. Cynics would say that’s not atypical.
19: A highly-acclaimed film which boasted a very moving score which is undoubtedly the finest work of its composer – but I bet few people on this forum have ever said many good things about it.
20: An unlikely choice for a sports film, but this distinctive composer has been seriously expanding his repertoire in recent years.
21: Considering this was made by one of Hollywood’s most famous directors and it features one of the world’s most bankable movie stars, it’s amazing how quickly it seemed to disappear from everyone’s consciousness. I don’t think it’s hard to guess what the temp-track was – and the same composer provided another gem here.
22: A legendary composer was meant to score this one but eventually didn’t, and the guy who stepped in did first-rate work – but sadly his music hasn’t been released.
23: Most definitely not a film about sport, but a sporting event is at its heart.
24: An arthouse composer gets animated for the first time.
25: This composer’s third appearance in this game. A score which nobody talked about at all – perhaps because it’s really barely a score at all.
