John Gavin is still remembered as a built, handsome leading man in some great movies. These include Spartacus, Psycho, Imitation Of Life, Midnight Lace, A Breath Of Scandal,  and Thoroughly Modern Millie. Gavin was  also the United States Ambassador to Mexico (1981–86) and the President of the Screen Actors Guild (1971–73). John Gavin starred opposite the beautiful Lana Turn and Sandra Dee in the 1959 drama "Imitation Of Life". This is the theme song from the film by Earl Grant sounding a bit Nat King Cole. The music for the iconic film "Spartacus" was written by famous composer Alex North. It is sad that he was nominated 15 times for an Oscar and only received an Honorary Oscar in 1986. His score for "A Streetcar Named Desire" still remains one of the best. This is the beautiful "Love Theme from Spartacus". Enjoy! Thanks For Your Comments.
