Inglis writes that Massot was impressed with "the accuracy with which music illustrated and enhanced the images on screen". Massot asked Harrison to provide the soundtrack for a new film he had written, "Zachariah", a western that was eventually made by director George Englund and released in 1970. Although Harrison declined, he later supplied incidental music for "Little Malcolm" (1974), a film he produced under the aegis of Apple Films, before going on to contribute to soundtracks for his HandMade Films productions in the 1980s, including "Time Bandits" and "Shanghai Surprise".
