This is a particularly important topic for myself on the spectrum, as I’ve had a lot of difficulties trying to follow what’s going on in the cinema. I’d have subtitles on all the time if that was possible.

    A good director will know how to use music to its full advantage to elevate a scene. How could you watch the Interstellar docking scene without Hans’ No Time for Caution? Or major chunks of Dune without the soundtrack?

    But, audio ducking the music to make sure the narration is understandable is just as important. Lay on the music when there isn’t dialogue, and bring it down when it’s time to listen to the narration.
