Steven Spielberg is promising his new movie about the 1972 Olympics will hit cinemas on time next month even though composer John Williams is struggling with the score reports Contact Music.

Spielberg is in a real race to complete the film, "Munich", in time for the all-important Oscars consideration period this side of Christmas. The controversial drama about the hunting down of Palestinian militants who killed 11 Israeli athletes at the Olympic Games only finished filming in late September and Williams has yet to record a single note for the soundtrack.

But Spielberg insists his film will hit cinemas on time. The question is, will it be ready for the 8th December which is the last possible day Munich can be considered for the early press awards as Golden Globe ballots are due on December 10th. With only several weeks to go before year's end and no real competition in sight, many are already locking in "Munich" as a likely awards winner in many key categories.

Same thing happened with Schindler's list.

Movies are a perminent document.

Spielberg wouldn't sacrifice his film for an Oscar.

The second movie this year Spielberg seems to be rushing. In my opinion, drop the score altogether. Sometimes, "emotional" music actually serves to distance viewers from what they are seeing. Maybe it would be raw-er if it had its silent moments when the music was expected to be playing?
