Abstract

singin' in the rain is a musical created in 1951 by Gene Kelly and Stanley Donen, thelma & louise a road movie created in 1991 by Ridley Scott. These two works could sound different; nevertheless they have a common point, which is the important role of sound, and especially music, within the plot. However both do not make the same use of sound, neither of the sound techniques, and that is what will be analysed in this essay. Firstly, we will describe the different kinds of sound - that is to say music, voice and noise - that these two works contain and analyse them. Secondly, we will try to see what can be learned from this analysis, as far as the notions of narrative and entertainment are concerned.
