Actually that’s not Forbidden Planet music, that’s The Day the Earth Stood Still music by Bernard Herrmann. Also, back then they usually scored several episodes and then just reused the cues over and over, so Williams wasn’t composing new music every week (the way, for example, Mark Snow did for every week of The X-Files).
You're right. I mixed them up.
Love seeing the original “The Day the Earth Stood Still,” because of its understatement.Two excellent actors in the lead roles, and very dependable character actors in the minor roles. Plus it gave a glimpse of a Dcv that has long since disappeared. Only odd thing is that so few blacks are seen in what was after all still a Southern city. BA/C.
