Vertigo (1958)

      The use of chilling music identifies the suspense and mystery.
      Vertigo is shown at the beginning of the scene with the swirling, moving shapes.
      There are sudden bursts of trumpets as the opening credits appear to make the audience jump.
      The scene opens with extreme close up of a person’s face to show the emotions of the character.
      Tension builds as the person’s eye opens dramatically in surprise or shock, fear.
      The actress does not blink when the camera is on her face to show her fear and to make her look innocent.

      The music helps build tension because that is an important role in creating suspense.
