[Chua-young's Music Box] The Screams of 'The Shining', the Auditory Discomfort Created by Krzysztof Penderecki's Music

[Chua-young's Music Box] The Screams of 'The Shining', the Auditory Discomfort Created by Krzysztof Penderecki's Music

I get hooked on the music in movies. Music sometimes conveys the intimate emotions of characters that cannot be fully expressed through visible images and audible dialogues.
