FAVOURITE FILM THEMES.

[mariana44]

I am combining Robert and Jon's last games, to make a New Game of Film Movie Themes-I am pretty sure we have not had this subject yet.

So this is just Theme music from a Drama, Comedy , Romance or whatever---but NOT from a Musical.

Any additional information you have as to who sang it, or played it--in the film--NOT a cover version, or if you know who wrote the song--all will be welcomed. The song title can be the same as the film or completely different--

I shall start with the film that gave me the idea--

"AS TIME GOES BY" FROM "CASABLANCA" as sung by Dooley Wilson---so says my 45" that I bought.

[Sandra]

Good game:

TO SIR WITH LOVE sung by LULU and written by DON BLACK

[john]

BRIGHT EYES (from Watership Down) by Art Garfunkel (one of the very first single's I ever bought) I think in about 1978.

[mariana44]

I have already learnt something new-I did not realise that Don Black wrote "To Sir with Love"

[Lena & Harry Smith]

"LOVE IS A MANY SPLENDOURED THING" movie with William Holden andJ Jennifer Jones. Theme song the same as movie title.

[mariana44]

Great film and beautiful song

"THE WAY WE WERE" sung by Barbra Streisand, written by Marilyn and Alan Bergman, an unbeatable combination.
From film of same name.

[Lena & Harry Smith]

AMONG MY SOUVENIRS, from the movie "THE BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES." with Myrna Loy and Frederick March

[jon]

Need I say, Matt with "Wednesday's Child" from "The Quiller Memorandum".

[Lena & Harry Smith]

One of the best movies of all time... GONE WITH THE WIND with the theme... My Own True Love.

[mariana44]

"THE SHADOW OF YOUR SMILE"--great song , not such a great movie---"The Sandpiper"

[Marian]

"And We Were Lovers" from The Sand Pebbles

[Marian]

and not forgetting...
"On Days Like These" from The Italian Job.

[john]

Definitely not forgetting "Born Free" by our Matt.

[Sandra]

ALMOST THERE sung by ANDY WILLIAMS from a silly film called I'D RATHER BE RICH' with SANDRA DEE

[mariana44]

I'll get in with this before anyone else does--

"FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE"--sung by Matt, from film of same name.
