The power of a film often lies in the music, giving images an enchanting depth. Hitchcock's thrillers only really became blood-curdling through the soundtracks by Bernard Herrmann. Star Wars was given an epic shine through the music of John Williams. Another Dawn is remembered for the brilliant score Korngold wrote for it – only to transform it into an Oscar-worthy violin concerto.
