"The Selling Wizard"

(a shot of a silhouetted freezer against a red backdrop. Tom makes low, eerie wails.)

This is an allusion to the scene in 2001: A Space Odyssey, where a giant black monolith looms before the camera, as do several planets in space. The wailing Tom makes is what Stanley Kubrick believed was suitable music for the scene. Just a chorus wailing, that’s it. But, if he was going for an overall eeriness, he got it. 2001 is probably one of the most fascinating movies out there, if you have a really long attention span. Go see it just for the final scene with the time tunnel. “My God, it’s full of stars!”
