Of that list, FANTASTIC VOYAGE is another favorite of mine... So it's between THE SAND PEBBLES, WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF, and FANTASTIC VOYAGE for me.

A strong year and a case can be made for each of the final five.
Regardless of the song, Born Free is a fine score, perfectly fits the film and has a number of gorgeous variations on the main theme and other melodic material.
If pressed, I'd stick with Born Free, the right choice, probably for the wrong reason (the song)
