<br class="">
1:40: (Jazz music) Joe tells of training for the Olympic<br class="">
decathlon, how strong he is.<br class="">
<br class="">
2:50: (Disco music) He tries to study, but can't, goes to a<br class="">
club. He meets the Georgette the former head cheerleader. They<br class="">
dance, go to the beach, make love. A few weeks later Joe gets<br class="">
terribly sick with a venereal disease.<br class="">
<br class="">
7: Doris and Philip are on the beach; he ogles a girl, she<br class="">
reacts jealously.<br class="">
<br class="">
8:30: Actors read more singles' ads.<br class="">
<br class="">
9:50: Joe addresses a large audience in a stadium, tells them<br class="">
about perfect love, apparently how to achieve it.<br class="">
<br class="">
13:10: (Oompah band music) At a restaurant a guy (sounds like<br class="">
Arthur Miller) says that Freud was affected by what he ate. A number<br class="">
of different actors talk about German/Austrian food and the ancient<br class="">
Teutons.<br class="">
<br class="">
15: Another couple (Doris & Philip?) at a restaurant talk<br class="">
about what to eat; they come onto each other, then get into an<br class="">
argument about what he has on his chin.<br class="">
<br class="">
16:40: ''Til you're gone'<br class="">
<br class="">
17:40: Joe's riding on a train; the stops sound like a train<br class="">
north of NYC, ending up in Newburgh. He's back in the town he grew up<br class="">
in, goes to his mother's home; she berates him for not having written,<br class="">
but it turns out to be the wrong address.<br class="">
<br class="">
21:20: Joe's in battle, sounds like WW1 - a brigade of women<br class="">
in bathrobes attacks. He knocks one into a washing machine, which<br class="">
kills her.<br class="">
<br class="">
23:20: Joe's at his mother's home, gets into an argument about<br class="">
his getting a job, not believing in God.<br class="">
<br class="">
25:30: ''Til you're gone'<br class="">
<br class="">
26: Doris and Philip are happy with their day; she's romantic,<br class="">
he fears he can't perform, which frustrates her. They can't agree.<br class="">
<br class="">
30:30: ''Til you're gone'<br class="">
<br class="">
30:50: Actors read more singles' ads.<br class="">
<br class="">
31:50: A guy (Arthur Miller?) talks about getting in touch<br class="">
with feelings, how the failure to do that causes so much of the<br class="">
problems of modern society. Others join in the discussion: it's the<br class="">
consciousness-lowering group. (originally aired in 'Arena' - or is<br class="">
it the other way around? They're both 1979.)<br class="">
<br class="">
37:30: Joe recounts falling in love with pianos. (The first<br class="">
piano was a the 'hungry i' in Chicago, Joe says; the 'hungry i' was in<br class="">
San Francisco. It was a *great* club!<br class="">
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungry_i" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" class="">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungry_i</a>) He fell hardest for a piano in<br class="">
Palm Beach, slept in her. Later he makes millions on the stock<br class="">
market, goes back for it, promises to save her, love her eternally.<br class="">
'A kiss is just a kiss' accompanies the end.<br class="">
<br class="">
43:20: An announcer reading a news story recounts how<br class="">
high-ranking Nazis escape after WW2, some to South America, some<br class="">
convert to Judaism, even becoming rabbis, some to Roman Catholicism.<br class="">
(Tchaikowsky's Symphony 6)<br class="">
<br class="">
45:50: Joe asks if she remembers a train ride into the<br class="">
mountains (some are Austrian Alps); they collect the stuff people on a<br class="">
train riding to a concentration camp, keep as souvenirs. They're<br class="">
about to make love when Joe protests he was merely a minor<br class="">
functionary.<br class="">
<br class="">
48:30: Actors read more singles' ads.<br class="">
<br class="">
50:10: The consciousness-lowering group talks about the<br class="">
difficulties of relationships, critically evaluate Doris & Philip's<br class="">
relationship, the story of Joe returning home.<br class="">
<br class="">
54:50: ''Til you're gone'<br class="">
<br class="">
Year: 1979<br class="">
<br class="">
Cast: Arthur Miller, Robin Bartlette, Tim Jerome, Bernie<br class="">
Mantell, Irene Wagner, Eric Sears, Rosemary Foley, David St. James,<br class="">
Marcel Rosenblatt, Joe Frank<br class="">
<br class="">
Music: This episode has a theme song, ''Til you're gone',<br class="">
performed by Arthur Miller (according to the 'NPR playhouse'<br class="">
announcer), accompanied by harmonica and guitar. It sounds like a<br class="">
real country song. I excerpted it from the show, have it on my<br class="">
playlist.<br class="">
<br class="">
The peaceful piano at 1120 and 3901 seconds (elsewhere?) comes<br class="">
from Thomas Newman's score for 'Little women' (1995), the 'Valley of<br class="">
the shadow' scene. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5KLL4i9QWI" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" class="">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5KLL4i9QWI</a> How<br class="">
did Joe get music composed in 1995 in a show in 1979? He was a<br class="">
genius! Or Newman re-used music he wrote earlier, either for another<br class="">
film or a 'serious' piece of music. Maybe Joe composed it in the<br class="">
first place and Newman plagiarized him!<br class="">

is the clip from Joe's show.<br class="">
<br class="">
An excerpt of the 'Casablanca' score, based on 'A kiss is just<br class="">
a kiss', accompanies the 'falling in love with a piano' segment.<br class="">
<br class="">
An excerpt from the third movement of Tchaikowsky's Symphony 6<br class="">
accompanies the escaped Nazis segment.<br class="">
<br class="">
I haven't identified the other music.<br class="">
