Film composer Basil Poledouris died this past week. While he was best known for his score to Conan The Barbarian, he was a consummate professional, with B-movie credits ranging from feel-good kiddie flicks (Free Willy) to ultraviolent sci-fi fantasias (Robocop).
It’s not entirely surprising, then, that my friends Patrick and Bunche have separately posted their own remembrances of the man.
