Somewhere in Time

Christopher Reeve, second class actor; Jane Seymore, third class actress. Somewhere in Time: 2 1/2 class movie.

However, the music is superb. Both John Barry's original soundtrack, as well as Rachmaninov's "Rhasposdy on a theme of Pagnini" op. 43.



John Barry also composed the theme song for Out of Africa, as well as songs for the Bond movies:
