Man, did many OTR sound effect guys love crickets, or what?
Heard two shows today, Third Man and Nero Wolfe, in which crickets were chirping for long stretches at a time. Earlier this week, I listened to something, I don't remember what it was, that featured a lot of noticeable chirping.
Last week, or maybe two weeks ago, I was driving in a rainstorm, and maybe it was because of the various rain sounds -- the general pelting, the windshield wipers, the different sounds tire make in the rain -- but on the program I was listening to, all I could here were loud distinct cricket chirps, while the dialog was obscured.
Again, those cats love their crickets!
