Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyze Horner’s soundtrack to A Beautiful Mind by particularly focusing on what effects it has on the audiences’ understanding of the film. Since the movie itself is rather complex and can be interpreted in many different ways, due to its various conscious and subconscious levels, this paper will look at how these levels are coded into the score and how the music enhances the experience of the viewer.
