When an important character dies, one way to ramp up the emotion is to cut all dialogue and sound effects, adding complete silence to the scene for perhaps ten seconds. Sad music, often with female vocalization, will usually be played to highlight the effect, but all other sound is cut out. Some extreme cases will eliminate even the music, leaving nothing but the video. Expect the visuals to consist mainly of other characters' reactions to the death, especially lots of screaming the dead character's name (silently), and general crying. Also expect the visuals to be in Slow Motion much of the time. And, of course, there's also the literal moment of silence shown out of respect for the dead, but that's more about plot than cinematics. See also: Silent Credits, Dramatic Space Drifting, and Sudden Soundtrack Stop. For in-universe moments of silence observed in memory of a deceased character, see Due to the Dead. For real-life ones, see In Memoriam. For an in-universe version that isn't specific to death, see Silence of Sadness. Beware of spoilers. Spoiler tags are used in some but not all cases. |

A variant is found in the final episode of the School Days anime. Makoto reads a text message that consists only of lots of blank lines and he scrolls down to the end where it just says "Goodbye", and all sound stops for a three-second close up of the single word. Then the tragic music picks up and he is stabbed to death from behind. | |

In Black Jack Justice, the protagonists' Private Eye Monologues always have a noir style theme playing in the background, with the most prominent instrument changing based on who is speaking and serving as a Leitmotif. One exception to this occurs in the episode "Justice and the Happy Ending". In the climax of the episode, Jack's recently returned former partner, Tom Fellows, tries to recruit Jack into his game of getting the local gangs organized under his bosses' syndicate, and prepares to kill Trixie to get rid of dead weight. Jack steps in, with every implication being he's decided to side with Tom and intends to kill Trixie himself. The Background Music is completely absent when Trixie describes Jack's firing the gun and killing Tom, and picks up when Trixie starts describing the aftermath of the events. | |

In The Last Jedi, after Admiral Holdo makes a hyperdrive-powered suicide run into the massive enemy ship there is a smash cut to complete silence for nearly 10 seconds. Some theaters reported moviegoers complaining about the "broken" sound during the scene due to the abrupt and utter silence.note This is possibly a Shout-Out to the unbelievable six seconds' silence cued by Orson Welles in the 1938 The War of the Worlds broadcast at the moment reporter Carl Phillips and nearly everyone else at the landing site is killed. Audiences were unnerved by that, too, even if they knew it was a play. | |

In the opera Wozzeck, the orchestra immediately fades to pianissimo when Wozzeck drowns, and for the remainder of the scene produces no sound louder than imitation frog croaks as the Captain and Doctor quietly react to the sound of a man drowning in the lake in dialogue (not even Sprechstimme). | |

This happens with just quiet music as John (Gregory Barr) is put in the police car in The Lennon Report; Yoko (Karen Tsen Lee) rushes to the window crying "John, John,"; Officer Frank (Tracey Asai) gently pulls her back, says "Are you all right?" and as Yoko nods, "Okay. Come on." | |

At the end of the last episode of Blackadder Goes Forth, when they finally go over the top in no man's land there are no closing titles and the usual theme tune is replaced by a slow piano version and gunshot sound effects, finishing with three strong bass-drum notes as the scene fades to a poppy field. The Blackadder ending came about almost by accident. They'd originally intended to show everybody falling, but it looked fake. Then they came up with the idea of slowing down the action and dissolving to a poppy field... and suddenly there wasn't a dry eye in the country. |

Road to Perdition's Battle in the Rain, with muted sound effects and no dialogue until the final confrontation. Then an understated "Facing the Bullets" One-Liner, and a jarringly loud burst of gunfire. | |

The death of Adric at the end of the Doctor Who episode "Earthshock". Not only was there no sound, but instead of the usual closing credits, there was just a closeup of Adric's broken badge. Done in the new series to great effect at the end of "The Pandorica Opens", when the Doctor is put inside the Pandorica, followed by the entirety of reality being subjected to Ret-Gone by the explosion of the TARDIS. And for the last few seconds of the episode, silence falls. |

Land of Mine: When Ernst Lessner suicidally walks into the mine field, the protests from Sebastian and the others fade to silence as the background music grows louder. When he triggers a mine and it explodes, the only sound is the music, which then ends, the last note fading to silence. After a lull, the music starts up again, quiet and slow. Several seconds pass before any other sound is heard — Sebastian's quiet, ragged breathing as he stares at the scene. | |

The death of Buffy's mom, Joyce in Buffy the Vampire Slayer: the entire episode had very little dialogue and was the only episode in the entire series to contain no music, and so probably qualifies. A similar example in the episode Passion; when the main characters receive a phone call informing them of Jenny Calendar's death, they're being filmed from outside the house. Their reactions are inaudible but unmistakable. |
