Turns out Loewe didn't like working on films, so most of the film adaptations didn't involve him directly.


They did much of their work during the mid-20th century. Loewe, a musical prodigy, first met Lerner, a radio scriptwriter, in 1942. They collaborated on two unsuccessful plays before scoring a hit with ''Theatre/{{Brigadoon}}''. Despite this success, Lerner and Loewe had frequent disagreements that caused them to go years without collaborating; after ''Camelot'', Loewe announced his retirement, though he briefly reunited with Lerner in the early 1970s. Several of their works also received [[TheFilmOfThePlay film adaptations]], which they also worked on.
