Hardly a forgotten film score, but speaking of Marni Nixon, don’t forget the singing voice of Maria (Natalie Wood) in “West Side Story”. I knew Marni and she was a wonderful singer with a surprisingly wide range; I played a Schoenberg “Pierrot Lunaire” with her once and she was excellent.
One that comes immediately to mind: “The Pawn Broker” starring Rod Steiger. Great score by Quincy Jones before he was “Q”. .
Speaking of Bernstein, a great (if sparse) sometimes forgotten (as much as Bernstein can be forgotten) score is “On the Waterfront” starring Brando.
Hey, how about “Black Beauty”? Danny Elfman score.
