Great music score sets the uncormtable mood


I really liked this thoughtful film. It had it's own mood and style with the sound score giving it an ominous, uncertain tone. After watching it again, I realized I had missed quite a bit - you really have to pay attention as to not get lost.

I second that! This film had many great nuances and the music and the sound world played a big role.

I agree, the score was perfect for the film.

I agree. The score was very effective in setting the tone of the movie. In particular, the use of the clanging triangle during the wedding/Walter Jr. abduction scene in the final act, had a very unsettling/surreal feel. Overall, I thought that the cinematography was damn near perfect at drawing the viewer into that world.
