Movies and music have been working together for a long time and the latter plays a significant role in filmmaking. It has prominently featured in movies because it affects our emotions; it can make one cry, laugh or can even scare.

The research conducted from the drama “The Memory Dealer,” shows that music in the film has so many effects.
