Persuasion 2022 - Expressive with Much

About this episode

In this episode, we look at the music of the 2022 Netflix film of Persuasion with the music written by British composer Stuart Earl. We explore how it uses romantic melodies tinged with melancholy to express the emotions of the main couple, primarily the main heroine Anne. We also explore how the music spans musical genres from classical to jazz influences to minimalism to a pop song by Birdy. Along with that, we also see how this film follows many formulas for romantic comedies.
