May the Fourth be with you! That’s right, it’s May 4th – International Star Wars Day. It sneaks up on me every year, until I see some 40 year-old walking around in a Jedi cloak. Believe it or not, it’s Margaret Thatcher – the Iron Lady herself – you can thank for it.

John Williams will begin scoring the new film, “SW: The Force Awakens,” next month. Whatever the result (I’m still smarting from the prequel trilogy), I am looking forward to the soundtrack. Williams never disappoints when it comes to this brand of fantasy. He is last in the line. The best composers of Hollywood’s Golden Age live on through him.
