Does the music have to be so damn loud!!!


Mr. Nolan, you don't need to have the score cranked up to 11 in every scene. A constant fast paced screeching violin is not always needed to create tension. Especially when it overpowers the dialog.

Yes it does

Well... Since almost all of his films are completely devoid of genuine emotion, he probably needs all the help he can get from the score. But yeah, way too loud.

Pardon?

I really like his films but the music was so loud during Tenet that I often couldn’t understand what the actors were saying and got confused about what was going on in that film.
