(1962) and Lilies of the Field (1963, featuring Stanley Adams and music by Jerry Goldsmith). He was nominated for the Academy Award seven times and won for Gone with the Wind. Director James Goldstone recommended Haller for the second pilot of TOS in the last minute, as finding a cinematographer became problematic. He came out of semi-retirement to work on the project. When Bob Justman, Herb Solow and Gene Roddenberry were interviewing him for the job, Justman was concerned, as he never heard anything about him. He asked: "Could you tell me what you've done? Recently?" Haller replied: "Not much, recently. I've been sort of semiretired." Justman began to worry. "Well, have you done anything that, you know, we might have heard of?" "Well, yes. I did do a picture you might have heard of. Back in thiry-nine." While Justman and Solow began calculating how long ago that was, Haller broke the ice: "It was called Gone with the Wind." Suddenly realizing what he had just said, all three of them immediately agreed to hire Haller. (Inside Star Trek: The Real Story, p 82) Haller died in a car accident in Marina del Ray, at the age of 74.
