Songs from the Movies: Answers
Some of these songs became famous along with the movies. Others, frankly, livened up some cinema turkeys and became much better known than the films they were featured in. Some even rescued their films from obscurity. For example, the rather dull Western High Noon became a much bigger hit due to its theme song, Dmitri Tiomkin's memorable 'Do Not Forsake Me, O My Darling'. Not bad for a Russian composer..
Here are the quiz answers:
| Song | Movie | |
| Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head | Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid | |
| Moon River | Breakfast at Tiffany's | |
| If You Wanna Sing Out, Sing Out | Harold and Maude | |
| Mrs Robinson | The Graduate | |
| Colonel Bogey March | Bridge on the River Kwai | |
| Star of Bethlehem | Ben Hur | |
| Windmills of Your Mind | The Thomas Crown Affair | |
| Come Saturday Morning | The Sterile Cuckoo | |
| One Tin Soldier | Billy Jack | |
| Mona Lisa | Captain Carey, USA |
These songs are fun to remember. They might inspire you to do three things:
- Watch some old movies.
- Search the Edited Guide for information on these songs, films, and singers/composers.
- Write a Guide Entry on a song lyric, film, or artist yourself.
If you write, we promise to read – and we won't ask for any credit. We're modest like that.
