My thought as well. Normal house on a normal street, not a gated mansion.

I googled the list of movies that he's done the scores for.

Impressive to say the least.

Classic Popcorn Movies like "Star Wars" "Jaws" "ET" and "Raiders". Incredible movies like "Saving Private Ryan" and "Schindler's List".

And, some that aren't so much.... "1941"? "Heartbeeps"? "Superman IV"? :-)

Sometimes, you make Art. And sometimes, you just make money.

Superman 4 merely used his classic theme from the original film. 1941 has a terrific score.

Williams is an extremely gracious and classy man - saw him conduct in Philly a few years ago - returned for three encores and finally well after eleven at night came back on stage one last time, clasped his hands together beside his head as though he were leaning it on a pillow to indicate it was time for bed, and left the stage to a standing ovation from the full house - charming....
