Steven Spielberg's longtime composer John Williams previously said that he would be retiring after Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
Williams had previously insisted that the upcoming, he is not ready to give up work., during a joint appearance with Spielberg, Williams, 90, said:"Well, Steven is a lot of things. He’s a director, he’s a producer, he’s a studio head, he’s a writer, he’s a philanthropist, he’s an educator. One thing he isn’t is a man you can say no to.”
A shocked Spielberg replied at the American Cinematheque event:"You never told me that before today." And Williams went on:"I had a 90th birthday and I met a woman at my age up in Boston. She was a very nice lady, exactly the same age as I, and I said to her, the greatest decade in a man’s life is 80 to 90, if you have your health, because if you get to 90, there’s an enormous compensation.
"You see everything with such magnetic vision that you see the most beautiful thing in the world are Peruvian butterflies. There’s nothing more beautiful than that. And so it’s the greatest decade. "And she said, ‘No, the greatest decade in a person’s life is 90 to 100. So I’ll stick around for a while… But also, you can’t retire from music. I said earlier, it’s like breathing. It’s your life. It’s my life. And so a day without music is a mistake.
