Cinema Without Pictures #31: Oct 2022 - Iconic Theme Tunes

Andrew explores the heyday of the cinematic theme tune with signature songs often more widely known than the movies that they introduce.

Includes selections from Deliverance (1972), Shaft (1971), Get Carter (1971), Twisted Nerve (1968), M*A*S*H (1970), A Star is Born (1976), The Sting (1973), Buck Privates (1941), The Third Man (1949), The Pink Panther (1963), Goldfinger (1964), The War Lord (1965), Un Homme et Une Femme (1966), Black Orpheus (1959), Ben (1972), Ghostbusters (1984) and Chariots of Fire (1981).

Post-script: The groovy version of the "Get Carter" theme played is a 2011 recording by The Moderators.
