If you are looking for the real instermental background music from a movie, the score is what you look for. All too often albums labeled 'soundtrack' are old pop music which may or may not have appeared in the actual movie.
As for good listening, the early Bond movies have good albums. I have most of them in vinyl and CD. The vinyl may have different tracks on it. This is especially true of the album released for the First three Star Wars movies where, to my knowledge the original London Symphony scores were never mastered onto CD and new scores were done when the movies were redone by Lucas in the late '90's.
Good movie scores:
The Bond movies especially "You Only Live Twice" and "Thunderball"
The 1984 Batman
The Wind and the Lion
John Wayne and the Cowboys
The 1979 Superman
ET
Jaws
Gettysburg
Pirates Of The Caribbean, the Black Pearl
and a whole bunch more
