" For "The Man with the Golden Arm," in which Frank Sinatra played a heroin-addicted jazz musician, he discarded the studio orchestra for a jazz ensemble Still, major studios refused to hire him, and he resorted to turning out music for low-budget films like "Robot Monster" and "Cat Women of the Moon He was 82 " A supporter of left-wing causes, Bernstein's career was nearly destroyed by the Hollywood Red Hunt of the 1950s when he was summoned before a congressional subcommittee and told to identify communists in the film industry com " Ironically, it was the vocally anti-communist director Cecil B " "To Kill a Mockingbird" presented Bernstein quite a challenge "They were friends and fellow New Yorkers, but they were not related in any way "It's entirely another to write music that graces a film elmerbernstein Bernstein, whose prolific career spanned seven decades and earned him 14 Academy Award nominations, an Oscar win and an Emmy Award, died in his sleep at his Ojai home Wednesday, said his publicist, Cathy Mouton "Without even realizing that you're listening to music that's doing something to your emotions, you will have an emotional experience " Other credits included "National Lampoon's Animal House," "Airplane!," "Stripes," "Meatballs," "Ghostbusters," "Trading Places" and "The Rainmaker He refused, saying he'd never attended a Communist party meeting " "Film music, properly done, should give the film a kind of emotional rail on which to ride," Bernstein told The Associated Press in a 2001 interview " He is survived by his wife, Eve, sons Peter and Gregory, daughters Emilie and Elizabeth, and five grandchildren In addition, he scored such movie classics as "The Ten Commandments," "The Magnificent Seven," "To Kill a Mockingbird," "The Great Escape" and "True Grit " De Mille asked him, "Do you think you can do for Egyptian music what Puccini did for Japanese music in `Madame Butterfly'?" The young composer accepted the challenge, earning the first of his 14 Oscar nominations in the process "The simple score was played by a small ensemble, at times employing single piano notes, much like a child picking out a tune Through 200 movies and 80 television shows, Bernstein would prove that he could adapt to any kind of music "It's one thing to write music that reinforces a film, underscores it â€â€? the traditional sense of stressing, underlining â€â€? or gives it added dramatic muscle," director Martin Scorsese once said That's what Elmer Bernstein does, and that, for me, is his greatest gift A piano prodigy who studied composing under Aaron Copland in New York, Bernstein moved to Hollywood in 1950 to work on his first movie score, for the football film "Saturday's Hero He won an Emmy Award in 1964 for "The Making of The President: 1960 " After a few more routine assignments he made his mark with the moody music for the Joan Crawford thriller "Sudden Fear "Then I realized that the film was about these issues but seen through the eyes of children," he once recalled For the landmark western "The Magnificent Seven," Bernstein composed a galloping march that remained famous for years afterward in TV ads for Marlboro cigarettes Although he won an Oscar only once for the 1967 film "Thoroughly Modern Millie" â€â€? considered one of his weaker works â€â€? Bernstein was revered for experimenting with various techniques that bolstered the films " Among his more notable efforts were the scores for "Some Came Running," "Birdman of Alcatraz," "The Great Escape," "Hawaii," "The Great Santini," "Cast a Giant Shadow," "My Left Foot," "A River Runs Through It," "Devil in a Blue Dress" and "The Age of Innocence For six weeks he could find no way to approach the story, which concerned racism and the Depression in a small Southern town A memorial service is pending "I wasn't important enough to be blacklisted, so I was put on a gray list," he once said De Mille who broke the gray list by hiring Bernstein to replace the ailing Victor Young on "The Ten Commandments " Although both hailed from New York, he was no relation to the legendary composer Leonard Bernstein " He also composed several works for symphony orchestras â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? On the Net: http://www "That's a common question," Mouton said Elmer Bernstein, Film Composer, Dead at 82 Aug 19, 7:29 AM EST Film composer Elmer Bernstein, who created a brawny, big-sky theme for "The Magnificent Seven," nerve-jangling jazz for "The Man With The Golden Arm" and heart-rending grace notes for "To Kill a Mockingbird," has died The "Just Judges" panel depicts 10 men on horseback on their way to venerate the Holy Lamb Some theories make an "Indiana Jones" scenario seem mundane "This should have been the highlight of my quest," he lamented "When it wasn't found last month, the myth just reinforced itself a little bit more " The cab driver decided the panel had to be hidden in the church of Goedertier's home town of Wetteren just outside this gothic city A new Web site is pooling theories and bringing fans together to exchange information An additional tease for sleuths was Goedertier's warning that the panel was hidden in a place no one can get to "without drawing public attention "A whole new generation is emerging," said Maria De Roo, a 73-year die-hard who is defending a conspiracy theory, claiming the Belgian authorities retrieved the panel a long time ago, but have ordered all involved to be silent The panel was stolen along with a lesser panel on April 10, 1934, from the Saint Bavo Cathedral " So De Roeck called in police on Oct "The only good thing to come out of this is that interest has soared again" he said The 20-panel "Adoration of the Mystic Lamb," completed in 1432, offers a translucent use of color created by layer upon layer of oil and intricate detail and mystical meaning which set an example for generations of artists Mortier is keeping it simple, claiming Goedertier hid the painting somewhere behind the old wood paneling in the vast Saint Bavo cathedral It only increased his disappointment when he came up empty-handed Missing Van Eyck Still Holds Attention Nov 27, 12:31 PM EST GHENT, Belgium (AP) â€â€? Even though the painting has not been seen since 1934, it is becoming more popular by the day Soon after, extortion letters sent to the bishop of Ghent demanded $25,000 "Now, I'm trying to get more money again to continue the search in the church," he said Like so many before him, he had intimately studied the life of the presumed thief, Arsene Goedertier, a local stockbroker who collapsed from a stroke seven months after the theft and uttered his last famous words: "Only I know where the 'Adoration' is The mystery only increased after a much publicized hunt for the highlight of Flemish primitive painting ended in disappointment last month when a secret cache in a church in northern Belgium turned out to be empty Meanwhile, up to 2,000 visitors a day visit the gothic church in the center of town where Van Eyck's "Adoration," including a copy of the "Just Judges" panel, is encased in 2 inches of reinforced glass to prevent another theft He boldly proclaimed on his Web site he knew where the "Just Judges" panel of Van Eyck's "Adoration" was hidden Television broadcasts opened their news on location and a Web site set up to highlight the discovery crashed under the weight of 75,000 hits a day Retired cab driver Gaston De Roeck was convinced this summer that he would become that hero Seven years ago, X-ray investigations of part of the paneling was fruitless but lack of funds have barred the inquiry in the cathedral to continue Any sleuth who could solve the crime would become an instant hero, a savior of a piece of national heritage " The search captured front pages throughout Belgium and beyond and the probe in the church was carried live on radio "That is almost art in itself It is almost 70 years since the disappearance of a panel scarred one of Western art's defining works "Many come see the painting for something which is no longer there," said Bernauw 4 to help out in church and keep the curious at a safe distance Pre-eminent "missing panel" expert Karel Mortier, a retired police chief who has been hunting since the 1950s, had already made up his mind it could never be where De Roeck was looking, since hiding it so close to Goedertier's home would have made him all too obvious a suspect Now, the theft of Jan Van Eyck's "Just Judges" is taking on ever more mythic proportions Some have Nazi conspiracies, others exotic hiding places as far away as India or deep in royal crypts For decades, a determined bunch of die-hard amateur detectives has picked up where police left off many years ago For many, the concept is just too enticing: It unites a stupendous piece of art and a great detective story It highlights what made Van Eyck famous â€â€? beautiful light, intricate details and composition " De Roeck dissected the 13 extortion letters for $25,000 in ransom, a huge sum at the time, which were sent to the local bishop's office "It is our monster of Loch Ness," said author Patrick Bernauw, who has written a book on the audacious theft |
