Tsotsi- Sound & Music

Music did an interesting job of setting the tone for the different scenes in the movie. In the scene where Tsotsi ran out of the bar, there was fast paced music, which set the mood for him running away. Afterwards, when he is in the rain, quiet soft music came on. This supports the sad reflective moment he was having. He was reflecting on past memories as a child so this music went well with the scene.
Music gives more emotion to scenes for the audience. It helps the audience empathize with the characters because they can sense how the characters are feeling.
