Pretty sure the 1st time I really sat up & noticed a film score was seeing Enter the Dragon at an inappropriately young age (it was a pre-cert VHS, after all).
As soon a Lalo Schifrin's theme kicked in - wow, that is something else. #RIPLaloshifrin #Laloshifrin

A film which has brought me so much pleasure for pretty much most of my days turns 100 #OTD - #CharlieChaplin's #TheGoldRush.
