Music by John Williams

French documentarian Laurent Bouzereau has directed 343 movies(!), many of which are hack-jobs of the 'The Making Of' type. MUSIC BY JOHN WILLIAMS is his latest (and highest rated). From the Trailer, it looks like it might be the usual hagiographic bio-pic trash, but because of its subject matter, it isn't. (Similar to the 2021 Ennio Morricone biography,) it's a touching, inspiring and joyful trip down memory lane. A wholesome story about the wholesome man who was nominated for 54 Oscars, "One of the biggest pop stars ever". [more inside]
