Title: North by Northwest Director: Alfred Hitcock
Music: Prelude
composer/songwriter: Bernad Herrmann
The clip shows the intro to north by northwest. It first starts off with a blank green screen left over from the lion logo. Then line begin to draw in skyscraper windows and it fades into a city background scene. Names are scrolling on the screen. Meanwhile this is happening the music is playing and it gives a anxious feeling. It has a lot of buildup and creates excitement as we transition into the beginning of the movie.

Title: Punch Drunk Love Director:Paul Thomas Anderson
Music: Tabla
composer/songwriter: John Bria
Starts with the music playing and Barry Egan looking at a large stack of pudding. He then decides he needs more pudding and it switches to a store scene. The scene is well lit and the camera moves around Watching Lance and Barry shopping, running around, and dancing. Meanwhile we hear the music in the background slowly getting louder and more incense, but not too invasive. It kind of gives a iffy feeling to the viewer. It makes you feel like... what is going on.

Title: The Godfather Director: Francis Ford Coppola
Music: Waltz (sicilian)
composer/songwriter: Nino Rota
This scene starts as the camera slowly makes its way into mr woltz bedroom. He wakes up to the room is dimly lit and the camera moves around quite a bit. Meanwhile, we are hearing a gradually intensifying song in the background. Mr. Woltz wakes up to find his horses severed head in bed with him and blood everywhere. The music abruptly stops as he begins to scream. I think the music did a good job of giving the viewer a ominous feeling.
my favorite-
Title: Goodfellas
Director: Martin Scorsese Music: Layla (piano ending) composer/songwriter: Eric Claptop with Deric and the Dominos This clip shows the part where the police and everyone are finding dead bodies. The song layla comes on, witch is usually a cheery song, and is used for a very gruesome scene. The song makes the brutality of the scene a little easier for the viewer to take in.
