Welcome to Cinematic Sound Radio's celebration of the 35th anniversary of Film Score Monthly. In 1990, a young film music fan named Lukas Kendall began what was to become Film Score Monthly with a Xeroxed newsletter sent to a handful of fans who signed up to receive the snail mail newsletter. From there, the newsletter turned into one of the biggest soundtrack publications in the world. The magazine's run ended in 2005 at 150 issues. It ceased printing due to budgetary reasons. The magazine, however, still lives on in the digital world as FSM On-Line. A byproduct of the magazine was a record label, which began in 1998 with the release of Jerry Goldsmith's STAGECOACH / THE LONER. Lukas would go onto produce 250 FSM CDs, many of them long-sought-after "holy grails." The label would cease production in 2013. The website and popular message board are still running, but are in desperate need of updating. That's where you come in. Lukas is currently raising money on Kickstarter to help fund a brand-new website, message board, book, CD and more! As of the release of this episode on June 20th, 2025, the Kickstarter has reached its initial goal of $25,000 and is currently in its stretch run to raise an additional $25,000. If you've already pledged, thank you, but if you haven't, then please head over to the Kickstarter by CLICKING HERE and donate what you can to help keep this film music institution running smoothly for the next 35 years! To celebrate FSM's 35 years, I'm going to play for you my top five favourite Film Score Monthly CDs of all time, featuring the music of Franz Waxman, Bronislau Kaper, Johnny Green, Stu Phillips, Elmer Bernstein, Alexander Courage and Jerry Goldsmith.

Pitcher List Fantasy Baseball Podcast

Ellen Adair and Eric Gilde discuss the 1992 Babe Ruth biopic, "The Babe." They introduce the film (1:36), with an overview of the script, the cast, and filmmakers, and review the 20-80 baseball scouting grades for rating the film (4:05). Amount of Baseball (10:01) is surprisingly baffling for a relatively objective tool, but our scouts try to parse the true amount given the unsatisfying, nothing-but-dingers nature of the gameplay. There is a sad player comp. Baseball Accuracy (15:00) dives in on this film's Babe Ruth pitcher erasure, including striking out Ty Cobb, and inaccuracies with Ruth's first career game and his performance in the 1916 World Series. His time with the Orioles and Jack Dunn also elided, with some unfortunate consequences including the creation of his nickname. Some examination of very young George as a rapscallion, his home life, and his time at St. Mary's Industrial School for Boys, plus Brother Matthias accuracy. Did Babe Ruth ever come late to a game drunk? There are many, many timeline problems, particularly with Claire and Helen. Ellen plays a game of What Year Is It. Discussion of Joe Dugan, Dorothy, Ruth punching an umpire, Ernie Shore's "combined" no-hitter, Eddie Bennett, Harry Frazee's sale of Ruth, the Called Shot, the Johnny Sylvester story, the feud with Lou Gehrig, and Ruth's "milk." Ruth's relationship with Miller Huggins, and his desire to become a manager himself, including anecdotes with Frank Navin and Connie Mack, are examined. WTF is up with the depiction of Ruth's athleticism, (including his purported use of a courtesy runner)? The final game has as many problems as the rest of the film. Storytelling (1:04:02) highlights this film's main problems: the classic biopic problem of trying to tell the entire life story, timeline jumbles, and the depiction of Ruth as a dumb man-child. Yankee Stadium propaganda. Ellen has a list of Unanswerable Questions. Score (1:20:10) envisions the scenario in which consummate professional Elmer Bernstein was asked to compose the music for this film. Acting (1:23:13) discusses this disappointing John Goodman performance, backed by a whole lot of It's Fine. Ellen uplifts one Trini Alvarado moment. Delightfulness of Catcher (1:29:00) had so many good catcher names and Ruth's own catcher feats as possible fodder, but nothing is made of them. Delightfulness of Announcer (1:30:31) considers the culpability of the announcers for the inaccuracies.

Se habla a veces de la fe como una opción más en la vida, como si para algunos de nosotros fuera posible vivir sin Cristo. Juan cuenta la parábola de Jesús sobre la vid y los pámpanos en el capítulo 15 de su Evangelio, que nos recuerda que separados de Él, nada podemos hacer (v. 5). El cantautor de Filadelfia, Amos Lee, se hizo especialmente conocido al ir de gira con Nora Jones y Bob Dylan a principios de este siglo. En 2011 pide a Jesús si puede ayudarle, ahora que se siente tan solo, en la canción que lleva su nombre. Zach Williams tenía un grupo también a principios de siglo llamado La Reforma (The Reformation), pero es cuando llega a ser cristiano que se une a los Hermanos de la Gracia (Brothers Of Grace). En 2019 graba con "la reina del country", Dolly Parton, nieta de un pastor pentecostal, "Allí estaba Jesús" (There Was Jesus). Malcolm Wild es ahora pastor de la Capilla Calvario en Florida, pero junto con Alwyn Wall, ahora pastor de Calvary Chapel en Londres, formó un dúo de apariencia hippy al estilo Simon y Garfunkel. a principios de los 70, llamado Malcolm y Alwyn. Al llegar los sonidos de la "nueva ola" de "power pop" en Los Ángeles a finales de los 70, Wild formó un grupo que recuerda a The Knack con el nombre de Malcolm y los Espejos (Mirrors), que grabaron un sólo álbum en 1981 de "Vuelta a la Roca" (Back To The Rock). El nombre "The Chosen" (Los Elegidos) era desde los años 70 conocido como el título de la novela más popular sobre las diferencias entre los judíos de Nueva York en 1967. El libro de Chaim Potok muestra el contraste entre el judaísmo ortodoxo moderno sionista y el ultraortodoxo jasídico en contra del estado de Israel. Habla del encuentro de dos hijos adolescentes de estudiosos de la Ley judía que se hacen amigos en el barrio predominantemente judío de Brooklyn. La apasionante historia de sus diferencias fue llevada al cine en 1981 como "Elegidos del gheto" con el popular actor juvenil judío de los 70, Robbie Benson, junto a veteranos interpretes como Maximilian Schell y Rod Steiger. Escuchamos algunos diálogos de la versión doblada, comentados por José de Segovia con la música de fondo del trío judío polaco de "klezmer" Kroke (Cracovia en "yididish") y la banda sonora original de Elmer Bernstein. El tema del grupo irlandés U2, "¡Despierta hombre muerto!" (Wake Up Dead Man) fue escrito diez años antes de que lo grabaran en el álbum "Pop" (1997). Refleja la lucha de Bono y The Edge por mantener la fe que conocieron de adolescentes en la comunidad cristiana carismática Shalom de Dublin. Es una oración a Jesús pidiendo ayuda, al verse solos en este mundo. La escuchamos en la versión en vivo que hicieron en el castillo irlandés de Slane. Otra plegaria a Jesús que tardó muchos años en salir a la luz es la del cantautor canadiense Bruce Cockburn, que grabó para su disco "In The Falling Dark" (1977), pero no se publicó hasta el 2002. Es una emocionante confesión de fe desde la oscuridad a la que se ha enfrentado siempre , este maravilloso músico que cumple ahora 80 años.

CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of racism, sexual assault, false imprisonment. 1962 contained not one but two books that were thrust upon us as required school reading (or acting), but none loom as large as this story. To be fair, it's one of the few stories about the pre-Civil Rights Act South that's presented through the eyes of a child, and that means it's perfect school fodder. The movie was a huge labor of love from the entire creative team, which is fantastic and reads on screen, but also makes for a truly uneven watching experience. Director Robert Mulligan gets the most out of the cast, but his execution of trying to see things through Jem & Scout's perspective never translates on screen. In fact, the only moments that truly work are in the courtroom, when the reality of small town Alabama racism come roaring back. It's a shame it's not a better movie because Gregory Peck is giving his masterpiece performance and the kids are phenomenal on screen, but acting alone cannot a movie make.

CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of alcoholism, child neglect, substance abuse, addiction. Every year at the Oscars there's a movie that stands out as the film that should be the Best Picture, just for the sheer raw power of its storytelling. This is that movie. Jack Lemmon is giving a performance for the ages, the supporting cast is rock solid, and the always contrarian Blake Edwards goes for broke. This could have easily been a melodrama, but you get the sense very quickly that everyone making this movie got the impact of what they were doing here.

Si la infancia es la patria que nunca nos abandona, nuestra vida está marcada por esos años de pérdida de la inocencia. El libro de Harper Lee, "Matar a un ruiseñor" (1960) es de lectura obligatoria en las escuelas de Estados Unidos. Fue la única novela que publicó la escritora durante 55 años, pero muchos la conocen por la versión que hizo en el cine, Robert Mulligan con Gregory Peck como el padre en la ficción de esta niña, que se enfrenta como valiente abogado al racismo del Sur. Harper Lee se cría con el escritor Truman Capote, que aparece en el libro y la película como Dill, el niño que pasa los veranos en ese pequeño pueblo de Alabama, apenas un surco entre plantaciones de algodón y trigales con una sola calle, donde vivían sus dos familias. Los padres de Capote se estaban divorciando y en medio de una amarga disputa por su custodia, lo mandan con unas primas solteronas de su madre. "Ambos sufren de las heridas del rechazo de los padres y sienten el desgarro de la soledad", dice el biógrafo de Capote. "Ella era demasiado bruta para las otras chicas y él demasiado blando para los demás chicos", dice Gerald Clarke. Seguirán siendo amigos toda su vida en Nueva York. Y es ella quien le acompaña en su viaje a Kansas, para investigar el asesinato de la familia que describe en "A sangre fría" (1966). En este programa Al Trasluz escuchamos fragmentos del libro, leído por Adriana Navarro y algunos diálogos de versión doblada de la película de Robert Mulligan en 1962, así como del telefilm sobre el cuento que escribió Capote de "Un recuerdo navideño". Oímos una parodía del libro en Los Simpson y nuevas canciones inspiradas por "Matar a un ruiseñor", como "Atticus" del grupo británico Noisettes y "Harper Lee" de la banda irlandesa Little Green Cars. El guión y la narración es de José de Segovia con el fondo musical de la banda sonora original de Elmer Bernstein, así como la versión del tema principal de la película que hizo el guitarrista de jazz Bill Frisell. El diseño sonoro y realización técnica es de Daniel Panduro.

We keep our Oscars series rolling and well, things have been rough to start. You'd think with a musical as culturally significant and iconic as this one that the movies would have done it up for fun. Sadly, this is an incredibly BORING movie. Sure, Robert Preston is incredible, and sure, the songs are fun, but after the 3rd of 17 dance breaks, you start to realize that our director just barely made a movie. They might as well have filmed the stage production and screened that instead for as much money as they sunk into this.

Dana and Tom welcome returning guests, Keith Techmeier and Adam Vanderweff, to discuss one of the seminal 1980s action-comedies for its 40th anniversary, Ghostbusters (1984): directed by Ivan Reitman, written by Dan Ackroyd and Harold Ramis, music by Elmer Bernstein, starring Bill Murray, Harold Ramis, Dan Ackroyd, Sigourney Weaver, and Rick Moranis.Plot Summary: "Ghostbusters," directed by Ivan Reitman, is a spirited blend of comedy, supernatural elements, and special effects that coalesces into an exuberant cinematic experience. The film chronicles the journey of three parapsychologists—Peter Venkman (Bill Murray), Ray Stantz (Dan Aykroyd), and Egon Spengler (Harold Ramis)—who, after being expelled from their university, establish a ghost-catching business in New York City. Their operation, branded as "Ghostbusters," quickly gains notoriety as they confront increasingly malevolent spectral entities, culminating in a climactic battle against the ancient Sumerian deity, Gozer."Ghostbusters" is a testament to the power of well-crafted comedy and imaginative storytelling. It transcends its genre conventions, offering an escapist adventure that is both thrilling and delightfully absurd.You can now follow us on Instagram, Twitter, or TikTok (@gmoatpodcast) or find our Facebook page at Greatest Movie of All-Time Podcast.For more on the episode, go to: https://www.ronnyduncanstudios.com/post/ghostbusters-1984-ft-keith-techmeier-and-adam-vanderwerffFor the entire rankings list so far, go to:Full Graded List - Greatest Movies of All-Time Ronny Duncan Studios

SynopsisIn January 1980, famous American film music composer John Williams was named conductor of the Boston Pops Orchestra. On today's date that year, he led the Pops in the premiere performance of a concert overture based on his score for the John Wayne film The Cowboys.Now, by 1980, Williams had scored dozens of classic American films but not all that many westerns — The Cowboys, from 1971, for one, and Missouri Breaks, a quirky 1976 western starring Jack Nicholson and Marlon Brando, for another.If both The Cowboys and Missouri Breaks are somewhat unconventional samples of the western genre, Williams' music is in the grand tradition of the classic film scores by Jerome Moross, who composed the music for The Big Country; Elmer Bernstein, who wrote the score for The Magnificent Seven; and Jerry Goldsmith, who has done that service for a number of other classic westerns.All these composers, however, owed a collective debt to an unlikely cowboy music composer: Brooklyn-born Aaron Copland, whose Billy the Kid and Rodeo ballet scores from the 1930s and '40s helped define the symphonic equivalent of the wide-open American landscape.Music Played in Today's ProgramJohn Williams (b. 1932) The Cowboys Overture; Boston Pops; John Williams, cond.

The HBS hosts return to the movies to learn why men are cheaper than guns.The Magnificent Seven, produced in 1960 and directed by John Sturges, has a significant place in the history of the western in the U.S. Some have claimed that it is, in fact, the last true western. In fact, the movie practically says this itself. It is a remake of Akira Kurosawa's 1954 film, The Seven Samurai, placing it in a different genre and a different cultural context. Kurosawa, apparently, told Sturges that he loved the film. The Magnificent Seven deals with questions of the use of force, the capitalist function of thieves and bandits, the meaning of courage, and the loss that war brings. And it has an amazing score, written by Elmer Bernstein. So why are we watching this film? “It seemed like a good idea at the time!”Full episode notes available at this link:https://hotelbarpodcast.com/podcast/episode-121-hbs-goes-the-the-movies-the-magnificent-seven-1960-------------------If you enjoy Hotel Bar Sessions podcast, please be sure to subscribe and submit a rating/review!

The Age of Innocence may come as a surprise to those who associate Martin Scorsese with movies about gangsters. Based on Edith Wharton's novel, it's a sumptuous period romance set in late-19th-century Manhattan high society. Intriguingly, Scorsese described it as his "most violent film", though not so much as a punch is thrown: the violence portrayed is interior and social, not physical, in this depiction of a romance thwarted by the constricting social norms of the upper class. Scorsese faced the challenge of depicting a society in which, as the narrator puts it, "the real thing was never said or done or even thought, but only represented by a set of arbitrary signs" - and so the director cannot rely on characters stating things outright. His great accomplishment is that the film nonetheless reaches an operatic pitch of emotion, keeping the viewer on seat-edge. This is done not only through outstanding performances (Daniel Day-Lewis, Michelle Pfeiffer, Winona Ryder), but also by camera movements conveying repressed passion, by light and color, and by the gorgeous Elmer Bernstein score. For all that, if the film merely depicted the cruelty of social norms and mores stifling forbidden love, it would be of limited interest. Yet as the story develops, it doesn't allow itself to be reduced to a critique of the past. Indeed, though not without ambiguity, it shows the value of strong social rules and institutions - because often, if we follow our passion, we destroy ourselves and others.

WHAT THE F**K WAS THAT ALL ABOUT?HOW NOW DOW JONES by The Original Cast (RCA, 1967)This is the second Broadway soundtrack that Captain Billy has covered, the first being Lerner and Loewe's Camelot, and even though as a small child I had memorized my parent's Oliver, The Sound of Music, and My Fair Lady albums, after Rock, Folk and Soul music entered my life, I lost interest in the musicals of the Great White Way completely. As I explained in previous episodes, many of the carts in my collection were not chosen by me; they arrived in big lots, and the experience of discovering some of these hidden treasures is akin to sticking one's hand into a bag of….. (fill in the blank). Despite its catchy title, this show was totally unknown to me, although it did run for 220 performances. It was produced and directed by Broadway titans David Merrick and George Abbott.  It was film scorer Elmer Bernstein's only Broadway composition; the book was by Max Shulman, of Dobie Gillis fame, and the lyrics were by Carolyn Leigh — a totally respectable crew.  The cast included Woody Allen's avatar, Tony Roberts, and the whiskey throated Brenda Vaccaro in the leads, and there was even a Tony awarded to featured actor Hiram Sherman for his turn as a crusty stock broker. Yet, somehow the collective memory of this musical was lost to the ozone pretty quickly. Maybe it's the complicated plot- (It was always part of the charm of these albums to try and imagine the story as I listened) - but here the labyrinthian plot and convoluted conjunction of characters - (tycoons, stock brokers, government officials, suicidal, mismatched lovers, tour guides, and “the voice of Wall Street”) - had my Pandemic-addled brain yearning for a YouTube training video.There was a hit that emerged from the chaos,  “Step to the Rear”, which you might recognize: it was even used in a Lincoln-Mercury campaign, and there is a charming video of Tony Roberts with a stage full of investor ladies from the suburbs marching around the stage to the song.Give this recording a try, and see if you can figure it all out. 

The Good, The Bad, and The Sequel

Synopsis On today's date in 1993, the first gala preview screening of a new film, "The Age of Innocence," based on the novel by Edith Wharton, took place at the Ziegfield Theater in Manhattan, as a benefit for the New York Historical Society. That was only appropriate, since Wharton's historical novel describes upper-class New York society of the 1870s – an age, if the film is to be believed, so emotionally repressed that the unbuttoning of a woman's glove can be a breathtakingly sensual moment. The new film was directed by Martin Scorsese, famous for decidedly UN-repressed thrillers likes "Taxi Driver," "Raging Bull," and "Cape Fear" – and initially some thought Scorsese a poor choice to film Wharton's novel. The skeptics were proven wrong. Much of the success of the film can be attributed to its ravishing orchestral score by American composer Elmer Bernstein. "It was my personal tribute to the music of Johannes Brahms," said Bernstein, who also credited Scorsese for appreciating the importance of music in bringing a movie to life: Unlike most directors today, Scorsese brought in Bernstein before "Age of Innocence" was filmed – not after. "We started talking about the character of the music long before Scorsese ever shot a frame of film," recalls Bernstein, with admiration. Bernstein's "Age of Innocence" score was nominated for an Academy Award – the 12th time Bernstein had been so honored in his long and productive cinematic career.
