#QuickSidenote Yeah, its been said that director Richard Brooks or maybe producer Pandro Berman heard the song being played by actor Glenn Ford's son, Peter Ford… Wolcott was the one who suggested its use to the producer and then scored the movie. #CharlesWolcott #OneHitWondered
#QuickSidenote Rock and Roll owes Charles Wolcott… He was the general musical director at MGM/Hollywood, & the film composer for Richard Brooks' film Blackboard Jungle. He urged for the inclusion of Bill Haley's "Rock Around the Clock" in the film. #CharlesWolcott #BlackboardJungle #OneHitWondered

📽️ Richard Brooks (1955)
