I'm a Schifrin fan from way back (KELLY'S HEROES is one of my all-time favorite films), and always thought it was a shame that more of the Helm movies didn't have instrumental main-title themes. I wrote the piece because I was fascinated by the fact that, as Randy points out, there was such a difference in tone between the books and films.<br /><br />The espionage-minded among you may also be interested in a series of James Bond posts I've been running on my own blog, Bradley on Film. Although the difference in tone is less marked there, at least in the early Connery films, I've adopted a similar page-to-screen approach for 007. You can follow the series starting here: http://bradleyonfilm.wordpress.com/2011/07/04/samedi-night-fever/Matthew Bradleyhttp://bradleyonfilm.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16749171.post-3587669355902564242011-11-23T01:57:42.359-08:002011-11-23T01:57:42.359-08:00Nor should each be confused with Hamilton's no...Nor should each be confused with Hamilton's novels. There's supposedly an unpublished Helm, but last I heard, his son "wasn't ready to publish it."<br /><br />And I can't remember the last time I heard anything about the Helm film. Possibly a good thing considering Hollywood's track record.Randy Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16627907086811387527noreply@blogger.com
