One of John Williams's finest "intimate" scores is back in print on CD: The Accidental Tourist (1988), a straight reissue of the Warner Bros. Records LP and CD that now fetches high prices on eBay. The Accidental Tourist was Lawrence Kasdan's sensitive adaptation of Anne Tyler's novel about a writer of travel guidebooks (William Hurt) who comes out of his rigid emotional shell (after the tragic death of his son) thanks to the love of a quirky dog trainer (Geena Davis, in an Oscar-winning role). Kathleen Turner plays Hurt's estranged wife, with Bill Pullman, Ed Begley Jr. and Amy Wright among the supporting cast.
