Hi Max: As I mentioned it before in this forum (I guess the messages are available in an archive), Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan offers many interesting ...
Dear Sally (how are you!) : I think the first example of Ryan could be a little bit obvious. But the second one, it is so subtle -though might be confused with...
... Dear Gustavo, I fully agree with you about a certain misappreciation of Spielberg's sonic ideas. When I read about your mentioning Schubert's Unfinished...

A good example of a very well used "drone" can be found in Highlander when Conner McCloud falls for Brenda in New York and is explaining that he cannot get...
Thank you all for your replies, it is very inspiring to read. I especially like Sally's Walther Murch quote on ambiguity, I constantly run into scenes where I...
Hi Sergio: Thanks for the examples. You are right that 60's and 70's are a goldmine. When I talked about Blair Witch Project I forgot to mention two examples ...

I agree that sounds don't have to be "drones" or "musical," highly evocative, or even particularly attention-getting in order to give us information about the...

Hi. My personal use of drones, we usually call them "flate" which loosly translates into "coating" or "finish", is based on music. I tend to use string based...

Dear Sally: Alas! The big old question of what makes a film a good one... Hitchcock is a good example of "backwards understanding" (Does this make any sense?)....

Hi Sally, ... I think it totally depends on what you mean with "get". I think the answer to your question depends on, the reason why people watch a film. ...
