    The magnificent 7 is one of the best scores ever, it's strong, it's sweet, calm, then emotional... I'd love it since i was a child.

    Elmer is definitely underrated and one THE best.

    His blazing and epic score for Zulu Dawn 1979 is under appreciated.

    The creative spectrum of Elmer Bernstein is nothing short of astonishing. The range of his talents as represented here - from the classic score of The Ten Commandments to Man With the Golden Arm, The Great Escape to To Kill A Mockingbird, Ghostbusters to The Magnificent Seven... he was a genius of a composer. How I wish he was still with us and exercising his superb gifts.

    I fell in love with Elmer Bernstein's work as a young musician with the Magnificent Seven (my favorite). True Grit is second on my list. The score from The Shootist was a masterpiece....serious in its nature yet able to capture the magnificence of a colorful past. RIP Mr. Bernstein.

    Something about the fact that he was such an epic and mostly serious movie composer made it work so well in Ghostbusters and Animal House.

    That is truly an impressive range. It also includes Cape Fear and Animal House. No relation to Leonard, he also pronounced his last name Bern-steen and not stine. For some of us of a certain age, we may remember that great Magnificent Seven theme from countless Marlboro ads.

    • @mr.roberto1898
      @mr.roberto1898 2 роки тому

      Elmer did not score cape fear,that was Bernard Herman.

    • @brucekuehn4031
      @brucekuehn4031 2 роки тому

      @@mr.roberto1898 You are so correct, but -
      Wikipedia - “When Martin Scorsese announced that he was re-making Cape Fear, Bernstein adapted Bernard Herrmann's original score to the new film. Bernstein leapt at the opportunity to work with Scorsese, as well as to pay homage to Herrmann.”
      1962 - Gregory Peck and Robert Mitchum
      1991 - Robert De Niro and Nick Nolte
      No question though, Bernard Herrmann should always be the primary composer associated with Cape Fear.

    One could edit a video with the length of "Gone With the Wind" in order to feature all the films scored by Elmer.

    The Sons of Katie Elder theme is very similar to The Magnificent Seven theme

    You simply CAN'T have a top ten without Rudy,..(perhaps his best)...too big of an omission.

    • @lilliedoubleyou3865
      @lilliedoubleyou3865 4 роки тому

      RUDY was scored by Jerry Goldsmith (who also scored HOOSIERS) - another great old fashioned composer.
