Sounds, visuals and colors became enhanced as a way to increase the discomfort perception in space. Kubrick displaces his he music makes space more comfortable to observe in Star Wars while…

King Lear by the time of his death at the play’s finale is an entirely different character from who he was at the play’s beginning. Initially considering himself of some significance to the the gods, it becomes clear to him by the end of the play that even kings are no more than mortal men.

Really?!? Hi friends, Can you see where I was going with this? How was this supposed to work? What was I thinking? Turned out more mustard than fuchsia.
