the village (2004). directed by m. night shyamalan.

have you heard of the track from the village (2004, dir M. Night Shyamalan) called "the gravel road"? that piece of music was on when Ivy Walker was walking fast, away from the village, after she unknowingly killed noah who tried to scare her, donning the "those we do not speak of" costume. and another, "the vote" is played when noah's family agreed to keep the secret going by accepting his death and reinforcing the belief that the village will stay pure, undisturbed by influence from the outside as "those we do not speak of" shall stay to be the barrier, or buffer.

(August Nicholson, in a meeting discussing whether or not to let Ivy go): We cannot run from heartache... Heartache is a part of life. We know that now.



best listened in classical mode. the echo is beautiful.
