Wojo 2,453 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I'm sure if you went back into the Golden Age of movies, the fifties on back, a lot of those young actors like Shirley Temple and Mickey Rooney were in so many movies each year, they could have been scored by one person throughout. Or they were scored by committee or just recycled popular music of the time, disqualifying them. But who has the time to do the research.

But looking over some of the posted lists, Jerry Goldsmith/Sean Connery, James Newton Howard/Julia Roberts, and Elmer Bernstein/John Wayne would still have 7 apiece, Bill Conti/Sylvester Stallone and Elmer Bernstein/Burt Lancaster would have 5, and John Williams/Harrison Ford and a few other pairings would still squeak by with minimums of 4.

I even had WAR OF THE ROSES as part of an academic treatise at one point (but I can't remember what it was about, exactly -- I just remember e-mailing back and forth with Newman at the time; this would be the early 2000s).

mrbellamy 6,270 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Was thinking about the reverse of this question, who are the absolute biggest actors who have never had a John Williams score? Especially people who have been stars for awhile and would have had a lot of time for their careers to cross paths. Al Pacino and Denzel Washington are two that came to mind.

Jay 37,250 Posted June 1, 2021 Author Share Posted June 1, 2021 Oh man, you read my mind, I was thinking about starting a thread about exactly that! I think beyond Pacino and Denzel the biggest actors to not being in anything scored by Williams are Dwayne Johnson, Johnny Depp, Bradley Cooper, Will Smith, Eddie Murphy, and the big superhero actors - Robert Downey Jr, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Pratt, Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Chris Pine, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbellamy 6,270 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Yeah I wasn't sure if it was worth a new thread or not, and then I figured I'd just bump this. Some like Bradley Cooper and Dwayne Johnson and a lot of the Marvel ones except RDJ, I kinda disqualify in a way since they were really becoming stars about the time Williams started slowing down, mid-2000s and later. It's always more surprising the longer someone's been around. Of course some younger actors have snuck into his filmography recently like Tom Hiddleston, Benedict Cumberbatch, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Cooper did almost get one with American Sniper. George Clooney is another who hasn't, Ben Affleck, Sylvester Stallone. Plenty of actresses, Frances McDormand, Charlize Theron, Renee Zellweger, Angelina Jolie, Helen Mirren, Judi Dench, Sandra Bullock, Reese Witherspoon. There are others I was thinking must have missed too like Joaquin Phoenix but he's in Spacecamp! Schwarzenegger's in The Long Goodbye, Glenn Close has Hook lol. There are some really funny stealth ones like that, Jodie Foster in Tom Sawyer and Mickey Rourke in 1941. Cerebral Cortex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbellamy 6,270 Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Hmm don't know Another tangent I've pondered is which actors in Williams-scored movies have never actually appeared in a scene with John Williams music. I'm pretty sure Vin Diesel is one, possibly others in SPR (Ted Danson?) David Lynch in Fabelmans, sadly! Judd Hirsch too, I think. Would especially be funny if there was anybody notable in one of his music-heavy blockbusters who only had unscored scenes. John Williams Rejects.
