I have seen every single movie scored by Leonard Bernstein.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

I don't have a list but I'm sure the composer I've seen most films by is John Barry.
I've certainly seen every film he's scored that have beem commercially available, including some of the rarer ones like Night Games and Mister Moses, and even some of those that have never been commercially available including Muloorina and One Man and His Bank.
I still haven't seen all the made-for-TV ones, for instance I've never seen Sophia Loren In Rome, The War Between The Tates or Young Joe—The Forgotten Kennedy, even though that one was on videotape a while.
(I know the music though.)
But pretty much everything else, I've seen and mostly own.
And, let's face it, there's some dreadful stuff among it—but also gems.
Cheers

Only features and TV movies on my list. No episodic TV series, documentaries or shorts. So no Miami Vice, Airwolf, Twin Peaks or Stranger Things then.

When I was younger I was such a Jerry Goldsmith fanatic I tried to see every movie he scored.
But after subjecting myself to The Swarm, Baby, Supergirl, King Solomon's Mines, Rent-A-Cop, Leviathan, Mom and Dad Save The World, Basic Instinct, First Knight and Powder I started to realize his work was better-appreciated on CD!

Can't list them all because there are just too many of them, but I searched quickly through my database (complete up to the end of 2019). These totals include films with dual composers (eg THE DARK KNIGHT) which count to both of them.
In first place, to no huge surprise, Jerry Goldsmith with 116 (that includes alternative scores like LEGEND and SPYS, as well as the MAN FROM UNCLE "movies"). Surprisingly perhaps, second place went to James Newton Howard on 86; third to Ennio Morricone on 80, just pipping Hans Zimmer on 79. Horner takes fifth on a mere 70, followed by Alan Silvestri and John Williams on 68 each and Marco Beltrami on 67. (I'd have expected more Williams.)
Other high scorers:
Danny Elfman [62]
Graeme Revell [62]
Christopher Young [59]
Howard Shore [55]
John Barry [52]
Carter Burwell [52]
Mark Isham [51]
Lalo Schifrin [49]
Elmer Bernstein [47]
Maurice Jarre [46]
Brian Tyler [45]
Thomas Newman [43]
Michael Kamen [41]
Pino Donaggio [41]
(Though of course the other really high scorers are "None" and "Various"!)

I have seen 60 films scored by Hans Zimmer. That makes him the most "watched" film composer on my list.
Here is the complete list.
Has anyone of you compiled a similar kind of list?
HANS ZIMMER 60
Are we to infer that you seek out films scored by Zimmer, or that Zimmer happens to score films that appeal to you?
I used to seek out films scored by Zimmer. Not so much now. But he has 213 credits on imdb, so 60 is not really so much.

There are only two composers whose films I've sought out specifically for their music - John Barry and Ennio Morricone. The latter, as Henry implies above, has the greatest number to choose from, but the frustration of only a small proportion being shown on television or available on bluray (a self-imposed buying choice that also affects my ability to collect Fellini and Kurasawa films).
A rough check of 26 composers - because I don't keep a database of films watched, life's too short, and many have probably disappeared altogether from my memory in favour of more important things - seems to show the following results, in descending order:
Ennio Morricone - 84
John Williams - 50
John Barry - 49
Hans Zimmer - 48
Jerry Goldsmith - 41
James Newton Howard - 36
Danny Elfman - 34
Howard Shore - 27
Maurice Jarre - 26
James Horner - 25
Michael Kamen - 22
Michael Giacchino - 19
Thomas Newman - 19
Elmer Bernstein - 16
Henry Mancini - 16
Alexandre Desplat - 15
Ron Goodwin - 14
David Arnold - 13
Patrick Doyle - 12
Nino Rota - 12
David Newman - 10
Craig Armstrong - 9
Bill Conti - 7
John Addison - 6
Michel Legrand - 6
Eric Serra - 6
And apart from the correlation between my love for Morricone's music and its paramount position, there's very little you can draw from the above about what film music I like. Ryuichi Sakamoto and Wojciech Kilar hardly get off the starting line, yet I like their music more than many on that list. I've only seen one Konrad Elfers film but esteem that score (Funeral in Berlin, of course) very highly.
interesting exercise, though, some surprises therein.

Morricone by a million miles - i dont know how many without checking but probably somewhere over 150-160. I doubt its as many as Henry but considering old vhs n dvds bought on trips to italy, dubbed french n italian thrillers shown on uk tv in the 70s, all the westerns, cinema trips, and many new projects in 80s, 90s n 2000s. But id like to point out ive never seen any of his films on youtube, which of course could greatly up anybody's tally should they wish.
