   Elmer Bernstein talks about the music for “The Grifters”. For Scorsese as director, Bernstein adapted Bernard Herrmann’s original Cape Fear score for the 1991 remake; provided the musical atmosphere for Bringing Out the Dead; and wrote a stunning score, although ultimately unused, for Gangs of New York.

   • The Man with the Golden Arm (1955) Two of the most recognisable elements of Otto Preminger’s adaptation of Nelson Algren’s novel about heroin addiction are the Saul Bass-designed opening credits and Bernstein’s swinging jazz theme, both indelible cinema moments that seem destined to forever be intertwined.
   • The Ten Commandments (1956) Cecil B. DeMille’s only instruction to Bernstein was that his music for this Biblical epic shouldn’t sound like screaming jazz.
   • The Magnificent Seven (1960) Keen not to get pigeonholed as a jazz composer, Bernstein asked Charlton Heston to help recommend him for westerns. He would go on to write perhaps the most famous theme from the genre, infusing the score with as much energy as possible to drive the narrative along.
   • To Kill a Mockingbird (1962) For this acclaimed adaptation of the Harper Lee novel, Bernstein languished for weeks trying to come up with a sound for what is perhaps his greatest work, before realising he needed to go through the eyes of the children.
