Movies with similar time period and music?

I was looking for some movies like The Sandlot that take place in a similar time period and have music of that era. Some examples:

American Graffiti
October Sky
Far From Heaven
Forest Gump
Revolutionary Road
Catch Me If You Can
Walk the Line

Thanks in advance.

A few off the top of my head that haven't been mentioned:

Shag
Peggy Sue Got Married
A Walk on the Moon
The 60's (TV mini series made in '99.)

60's is my favorite. Movies always seem to be good that are set in this time period.

Jason Alexander directed this coming-of-age movie set in the 1950's called "Just Looking." It's good fun.

It's been a long time since I've seen them, but I think the My Girl films are the same era.

Actually, not all of the music in this movie is of the same period... "America the Beautiful" by Ray Charles was released about ten years after this movie is supposed to take place
