Yesterday was the birthday of Hungarian-American composer, Miklos Rozsa, who was born in Los Angeles, California,  He trained in Germany from 1925 to 1931, was active in France from 1931 to 1935, the United Kingdom (1935–1940), and the United States (1940–1995), with projects in Italy from 1953 onward. He is primarily known for his nearly one hundred film scores.

I have been fascinated with the The Golden Voyage of Sinbad film since I first saw it in the early seventies. It was one of many films by Ray Harryhausen in which he used stop motion editing; his earlier works were Mighty Joe Young (link below), The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms, The Animal World, and others.

The Golden Voyage of Sinbad starred John Phillip Law, who had appeared earlier as the blind angel Pygar in the science fiction film Barbarella with Jane Fonda.
