Such was its popularity that within two years of publication it had been turned into a big-budget film starring Leslie Caron and directed by Whistle Down the Wind's Bryan Forbes - a film Reid Banks said it took her 20 years to forgive for its cavalier treatment of her characters.

Mr. Steinman wrote the lyrics for an Andrew Lloyd Webber muscial, “Whistle Down the Wind,” and in 2017 “Bat Out of Hell” was staged as a musical play in London.

Steinman and Lloyd-Webber's compositions for Whistle Down the Wind included the future Boyzone number one No Matter What.

Steinman also worked on 1996 musical Whistle Down the Wind with Andrew Lloyd Webber, who said he was "unique".

He later won the album of the year Grammy for his work on Celine Dion's Falling Into You; and worked on Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical, Whistle Down The Wind, which opened in the West End in 1998.
