Likewise‚ he rids the presence of warm colors and uses cool colors such as blue and white in order to signal to the audience that things have cooled down and the atmosphere

most movies have examples of “diegetic” and “non-diegetic” scenes in movies to carry certain scenes along. However‚ I never truly understood on how important the music can be to set the proper backdrop for those specific scenes. In the movie Do the Right Thing‚ there is a scene were Mookie (Spike Lee) meets up with his friend Buggin Out (Giancarlo Esposito) for a meet and greet‚ when out of no where a man in Larry Bird Celtic shirt bumped into him and scuffed his Jordan shoes.
