A scene from "Children of Men" - the entire movie's sound is great, but this scene in particular has some wonderful, subtle (and not so subtle) work. Hear past the gun shots to the white noise.

  1. First of all, that was so good.

    Also, I feel like what might have inspired them to use that high-pitched tone for this scene was the sound one would hear after exposure to a lot of loud noises results in a perforated or ruptured eardrum. I think this could be particularly useful for us as a transition from the moment when Katurian is shot to his final monologue, but it's certainly a great device for mounting energy and tension regardless of the context.
