One Response to “Bernard Herrmann: Documentary (1992)”

  1. decypha Says:

    Worst thing hitch did in my opinion, was to ditch herrmann.

    Listening to acetates of the herrmann score for Torn Curtain and then listening to the John Addison version - Even though I like Johns score it pales in comparison to herrmanns version.
