Music By John Williams

Music By John Williams is a documentary film about the legendary composer who did the scores for Star Wars, Jaws, Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park, Close Encounters, Superman, E.T., Home Alone, Schindler’s List โ€” seriously, one person composed all these?! โ€” Saving Private Ryan, Harry Potter, Lincoln, etc. etc. etc. Oh, and the Olympic Fanfare and Theme that NBC uses for the Olympics.

Anyway, the documentary premieres on Nov 1 on Disney+.

If you've ever seen a bit of 60s comic froth titled How to Steal a Million with Audrey Hepburn and Peter O'Toole, the film music is credited to one "Johnny Williams." Yep, same person.
