Abstract

Sound is an important symbol of films, and the application of sound largely determines the success of the film’s quality. The essence of movie sound is to control the rhythm of the movie, and convey the consciousness and logic of the movie to the audience. This paper discusses the employment of three elements of sound in Hitchcock’s remake film The Man Who Knew Too Much based on the original version in 1934, and tries to explore how these elements shape the relationship between the characters in the film, create the atmosphere, and combine with each other. The sound of movie owns a soul, and reflect an auteur’s theory of aesthetics.
