Director Laurent Bouzereau On His Oscar-Contending ‘Music By John Williams’: The Maestro Is “Our Mozart, Our Beethoven”
'Music by John Williams' director calls beloved Oscar-winning composer "our Mozart, our Beethoven."
The documentary gentley touches on a tragic moment in Williams’ life, when his wife, the actress Barbara Ruick, died suddenly of a brain aneurysm in 1974, at the age of 41. Paradoxically, when the rare individual reaches success on the level of a John Williams (an admittedly small group) it becomes easy to lose track of all of their accomplishments, because there are so many of them. In the realm of cinema, his extraordinary contributions include not only Jaws, Star Wars, Superman, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, but the Indiana Jones movies, the scores for the first several Harry Potter films, Catch Me If You Can, Schindler’s List, E.T.
