Enjoyed an interesting second career devising lyrics for epic film themes of the 1950s and 1960s. The resulting songs were intended for promotional purposes and were not often included in the finished film, usually being released on gramophone records or sheet music. Webster's epic songs, adapted from the main themes of the original composers, included "Lygia" (
Miklós Rózsa, Webster) from
Quo Vadis (1951), "Farewell to Arms" (
Mario Nascimbene, Webster) from
A Farewell to Arms (1957), "Song of Ruth" (
Franz Waxman, Webster) from
The Story of Ruth (1960), "The Falcon and the Dove" (Rozsa, Webster) from
El Cid (1961) and "Song of the Bible" (Mayuzumi, Webster) from
The Bible in the Beginning... (1966).
