2 p. m. Sunday Cinematheque: Music by John Williams: The Cowboys, USA, 1972, 35mm, 128 min. Directed by Mark Rydell, cast: John Wayne, Bruce Dern, Roscoe Lee Browne. In a late-career performance, Wayne plays an aging rancher who, abandoned by his usual employees, sets out on a massive cattle drive aided only by a group of young schoolboys. Dern is memorably creepy as a shaggy-haired rustler shadowing the herd. The music by John Williams, some of his very best, is alternately rousing and elegiac.

2 p. m. Sunday Cinematheque: Music by John Williams: Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, USA, 1984, 35mm, 118 min. Directed by Steven Spielberg, cast: Harrison Ford, Kate Capshaw, Ke Huy Quan. Indy( Ford) is recruited to infiltrate an ancient, evil cult that has kidnapped and enslaved all of the children from a small village in India. This follow-up to Raiders of the Lost Ark adds a great deal more humor and even a musical number to its continuing tribute to classic Saturday matinee adventure films and serials, but it’ s the brilliant action sequences, including a rollicking mine-car chase, that makes this memorable and a must see on the big screen. This 35mm stereo print provides a fine showcase for one of the very best scores of John Williams, who builds on the familiar Raiders march with a whole new set of themes and leitmotifs.

2 p. m. Sunday Cinematheque: Music by John Williams: The Missouri Breaks, USA, 1976, 35mm, 126 min. Directed by Arthur Penn, cast: Jack Nicholson, Marlon Brando, Randy Quaid. Real-life next-door neighbors Brando and Nicholson made only one film together, this dark and odd 70s Western from acclaimed auteur Penn( Bonnie and Clyde). Nicholson plays the leader of a gang of horse thieves who are hunted by Brando, a highly eccentric hired killer who occasionally works in drag. John Williams’ music is appropriately minimalist and moody.

2 p. m. Sunday Cinematheque: Music by John Williams: Born on the Fourth of July, USA, 1989, 35mm, 144 min. Directed by Oliver Stone, cast: Tom Cruise, Kyra Sedgwick, Willem Dafoe. Vietnam veteran Stone’ s second movie to deal directly with the war is an adaptation of the autobiography of Ron Kovic. A gung-ho marine who was wounded and paralyzed during his second tour of duty, Kovic returned to the U. S. and became a leading anti-war activist. Born on the Fourth of July is solidly anchored by a powerhouse Cruise performance as Kovic and John Williams’ mournful Americana score, featuring trumpet soloist Tim Morrison.
