You learned about the different types of sound used in movies, how they're created, and what purpose they serve in adding to our understanding and appreciation of a film.
Give specific examples of how the sound track of Once Upon a Time in the West (Sergio Leone, 1968) creates or enhances any of the following:
• audience awareness and expectations
• expression of point of view
• rhythm and emphasis
• characterization

• emphasis
Remember that a film's sound track includes vocal sounds (dialogue and narration), sound effects ("wild" or artificially created), music (diegetic and nondiegetic), and silence.
