I'd like to know where Bernstein criticized Jarre; he says that they are "great mutual friends
I'd like to know that too. To my knowledge, Elmer Bernstein has never slated Maurice Jarre or indeed any other of his fellow film-scoring colleagues with a public comment.
In an issue of Starlog, Bernstein called John Barry "strange and very different, which he can find in his scores" but said that "The Lion In Winter" was "a very impressive work, and that he was devoted to the score", and also said that his early work for the Bonds were "very much the same way'. Barry himself paid tribute to Bernstein when he covered his theme for "The Magnificent Seven" on on of his first recordings after breaking away from The John Barry Seven and quoted it in his score in "Moonraker".
Did Maurice Jarre and Elmer Bernstein have a secret crush on Cynthia Millar?
How else to explain it
Bernstein was introduced to the Ondes Martineot by Sir Richard Rodney Bennett, and Cynthia Millar was one of the musicians to master the instrument. I don’t know how Jarre got ahold of the instrument.
