I remember being a kid and for the first time recognizing that the sound in a movie was “made up.” That was while watching Robert Zemeckis’ Death Becomes Her. It might sound like an insult, but really I think it’s because Zemeckis’ sounds were so present and vivid, like they were working in tandem with the picture to make something bigger. Cast Away, Back to the Future, and Forest Gump had similar effects. Zemickis’ newest, Flight, is no different. Sound Design by the great Randy Thom.
