la b.o. d'Indiana Jones
Nothing special about the 'to' here — it's the soundtrack to the film.
Although 'soundtrack' literally means 'bande sonore', yes, it's pretty unlikely he'd be listening to the entire film without watching the pictures (unless his TV is broken!), so it's more likely they mean he's listening to the soundtrack music, i.e. bande originale

: Yes, J-C, but as I've explained above, he's pretty unlikely to be listening to the whole s/track (dialogue 'n' all); much more likely to be just the music.

Tony M
: But there isn't really 'a theme song' to these films; it is a whole, wonderful musical soundscape by, of course, John Williams, who else?
