We usually geek out about words here at Off the Clock.

Today, I’m going to flip the script, as it were — and focus on the absence of words in one particular genre.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve appreciated film scores. To me, they’re an essential part of the moviegoing experience, and a well-composed score can enhance a film as much as great writing.

It doesn’t hurt that I got to meet John Williams when we inducted him into my school’s chapter of Kappa Kappa Psi, on the occasion of his retirement as conductor of the Boston Pops.
