William StrombergAbout
The film, Objective, Burma! (not to be taken seriously), portrayed in comedic fashion the exploits of an RAF bomber crew which, having destroyed an objective, is brought down by anti-aircraft fire in Germany where they make their way through that country via run ins with the Nazis and back to England.
Objective, Burma! was Waxman’s fourth score for Jerry Wald and Warner Studios. By then they had developed a good working relationship as well as an enduring friendship that would last until Wald’s death in 1962.
Franz Waxman wrote the following about his experience working on Objective, Burma!: “When I write music for a film I try to imagine what the sound of that music will be in a theatre, what it will sound like in relation to the dialogue and the action. In a film like Objective, Burma! you can tell immediately that the music will have to be military and epic, and that some Orientalism will be required for the Burmese locale.”
Objective, Burma! :
Score Restoration by John Morgan.
