in a lot of movies, you really need music to complete the movie. when people speak, the musics stops or creates a feeling that the conversation/scene is serious, funny, dumb or exciting etc. etc.
The Sting is a movie that stands alone in it's genre, when it comes to music. during the movie the music is allways closeby. but the most beautifull thing in my opinion, is this: when you watch The Sting, you get the idea that the music is a part of this movie. it's like the music is the conversation between two people when you see them speak. there are a lot of scenes in The Sting when you see someone speak but you here no sound.......only the sound of the music when their mouths open and close.
i don't want to be emotional with this review, but i just think it's really great that the music from The Sting acts as a conversation, so that the music really is a part of the movie and the script!
