Tom Johnson Favourite moment in Sound

Once Upon A Time In America
Leone’s use of the phone ringing is courageous. It lasts so long he risks losing his audience . Instead it draws the audience into the film, which is an inspired use of what is seemingly a very simple sound effect. This effect not only creates unnerving tension but also underlines the pivotal point in the main characters life (Robert De Niro)

Tom Johnson has won 2 Oscars for Best Sound and is based in Ardmore Sound in Bray, Ireland
