Something interesting I came across

So we all know about Inception even though some of us probably haven't seen it. If you haven't it seen it, I would check it out. It has a pretty good story with some interesting ideas but if you don't I'm not the movie police so do whatever. Anyways, we all know about the ending, again see it if you want. The ending left us all confused but that isn't the reason why I am writing this blog.

Anyway the main point that I wanted to get was the great little thing that Christopher Nolan does is that, with any movie he makes, his number one choice for his movie score is Hanz Zimmer. Now throughout the movie people are going into the dreams and when they hear a certain song, it is supposed to "kick" them back into reality. While people are in the dreams, time movies way slower than when a person is awake. Now the beginning of the film starts off with trumpets blaring and I didn't think much of it until I stumbled upon a video. The video explained that the trumpets blaring is the opening to the same music used to "kick" people awake while they were dreaming but it was slowed down by a lot. The idea is that the audience is dreaming and because we are in a dream we hear the music slowed down. I know that this isn't major but I think that this is a really cool detail that Christopher Nolan included in the film to engage the audience even more. The video is posted above because it can't be placed down here so yea...enjoy
