Now I’m not saying by any means that the film or this particular scene would’ve been better if it had a soundtrack. On the contrary, I think it would have “burst the bubble, break the charm” to quote one of my favorite artists of all time, Björk. Background music would only alert the viewer to the fact that he’s watching a film, they would snap out of the state of belief the actors, writers, and director are building with their hypnotic craft. And even though I know music would only make a scene like this worse, I can’t help but wonder how bad could it get?
