I think the closest Gord come to scoring a movie was "Hail Hero". A 1969 anti-war movie starring a young Michael Douglas. I bought this off ebay, and the movie is pretty bad! The credits state "Music by Gordon Lightfoot" but all he contributes are the title song and a different, faster version of "Wherefor and Why". Needless to say, these two songs are the only good things about the film!
