Soundtracks
Movies usually produce soundtracks to go along with the film. It helps to trigger emotions that the movie itself is trying to express, it can create suspense or hint us towards a climax. It can show us happiness or sadness that the characters are facing. An example where a movie didnt have the traditional soundtrack was No Country for Old Men, which included 16 min of music and some of it was part of the credits. The music was also created without the use of instrumental sounds. Other than that most movies include soundtracks the length of a normal music album. I recently saw Let Me In, which is a movie where I noticed the use of music to create suspense and lead up to something unexpected. Being a thriller movie the music really helps get you into the movie and want to know what is going to happen next.
