Double Indemnity

It started off with fast paced string and then deepened with horns underscore. It sounded sort of strange and mysterious like the film noir theme. It was a darker sound, matching the detective or crime genre style of the movie. The film noir of sting and horn music in and between scenes adds a detective, mysterious feel to the scenes, causing foreshadowing and the audience to be more curious for what is next. High pitch string underscore is played to present the woman’s entrance into the scene. Deeper, mysterious cues with horns are played with the detective and when the gun is shown. There are very little amount of musical cues; there is a lot less music within this movie compared to others. It ends with slow, dramatic horns.
