Description: |
Delicate variant of Leslie theme featuring a soft solo flute voice over a shimmering string ostinato; delicate music like the needlepoint that they are admiring (made by Leslie before the crime); the music turns dark when Howard wants to ask Leslie a question about the murder, and darkness almost overtakes the shimmering by the end of the cue |
On-screen: |
Men admire needlepoint |
