But how can you *not* notice the opening fanfare of Star Wars? Or
the closing montage? (hm...don't think I spelled that right)

A characteristic of a great movie score is that it fits perfectly
with the film moment, highlights it...

What would the shower scene in Psycho be *without* the music?

Or think of "The Guns of Navarrone," "Bridge over the River Kwai," or
"Magnificent Seven."

"The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" or "The Godfather"
