Mildred finds Veda and Monte together |
| Description: |
The theme associated with the revealing of secrets (previously associated with Veda learning that her mother worked as a waitress and Mildred learning that her daughter had been secretly married) is now brought back at the moment in which the film's darkest secret is revealed - the illicit relationship between Veda and Mildred's husband Monte; it begins with a slithering bass clarinet line, followed by harsh, chromatic woodwind gestures |
