“Hey, Dad? You want to have a catch?” Celebrate Father’s Day with music from movies about model fathers, complicated fathers, and father-son wish fulfillment. Enjoy selections from “The Godfather” (Nino Rota), “Field of Dreams” (James Horner), “Life with Father” (Max Steiner), and “To Kill a Mockingbird” (Elmer Bernstein). You can try to rank the music, but Father’s Day rates a tie. (Yes, it’s a pun. Dads love puns.) Spare a thought for dear old Dad, this Friday at 6 pm.
