Saturday Cinema

Lynne Warfel, YourClassical's host of Saturday Cinema and Flicks in Five, writes about this year's upcoming Academy Awards.

James Cameron's 'Titanic' earned 11 Academy Awards, including both music categories. You probably remember the first time in the movie when you saw the Titanic out at sea. On this week's Flicks in Five, we'll listen to the music that accompanied that breathtaking cinematic moment.

This week on Flicks in Five, Lynne Warfel shares some of Thomas Newman's score for 'Saving Mr. Banks' -- the story of Walt Disney's quest to obtain the movie rights to 'Mary Poppins'.

Film composer John Barry has won five Academy Awards for his music, and this week on Flicks in Five, Lynne Warfel shares music from his score for 'Dances With Wolves'.

One of the great composers of Hollywood's Golden Age is Hungarian-born Miklos Rozsa. On this week's Flicks in Five, we'll hear the 'Love Theme' from Rosza's score for 'The Lost Weekend'.

On this week's Flicks in Five, Lynne Warfel looks at a movie about five big emotions -- joy, fear, anger, disgust and sadness. We'll hear music from the 2016 Oscar nominee for Best Animated Picture, Inside Out.

As we head into the awards season for movies, it's interesting to consider the nominee who didn't win on the day, but Elmer Bernstein's score has outlived the film itself to become part of our popular culture.

Despite being snubbed by Oscar, Ennio Morricone's score for this 1986 film is considered by many to be one of the best film scores of all time.

On this week's Flicks in Five, Lynne Warfel looks at the work of Michael Giacchino. She will share some of his score to 2009's 'Star Trek', which cleverly interweaves elements of Jerry Goldsmith's melodies from the original TV series score from the 1960s.

On this week's Flicks and Five, we'll head into the new year with the voices of Bing Crosby and Marjorie Reynolds from the soundtrack to 'Holiday Inn'.
