On: BBC 4 (9)
Date: Wednesday 28th March 2012
Time: 00:40 to 01:30 (50 minutes long)

Documentary about John Barry, the most successful film score composer of the 20th century. From his work on the Bond movies, Born Free, Out of Africa, Dances With Wolves and many more he has produced cinema's most memorable music, winning five Oscars in the process. But behind all the Hollywood glitz and glamour, Yorkshire born Barry is a private and self-effacing man who talks emotionally about his early childhood, his relationship with his father and the impact of World War II. This is the first film ever to profile Barry and joining him are Michael Caine, Kevin Costner, and Adam Faith.
