<P> In July 2000, the cable channel Turner Classic Movies aired a version of Oz with the Dark Side album as an alternate soundtrack . Turner Entertainment Co. has owned the rights to the film since 1986 . </P> <P> There are various approaches regarding when to start synchronizing The Dark Side of the Moon audio with the film . Several involve the MGM lion as the cue . Most suggest the third roar, while some prefer the second or first . Others suggest starting the album not immediately after the lion's roar, but after the lion fades to black--exactly when the film begins . Viewing recommendations include reducing the film's audio and using captions or subtitles to follow the dialogue and plot . </P> <P> The iconic dispersive prism of the album's cover purportedly reflects the movie's transition from black - and - white Kansas to Technicolor Oz; further examples include music changes at dramatic moments, such as the tornado near the start of the movie aligning with the screaming section of "The Great Gig in the Sky", and thematic alignments such as the scarecrow dance during "Brain Damage". This synergy effect has been described as an example of synchronicity, defined by the psychologist Carl Jung as a phenomenon in which coincidental events "seem related but are not explained by conventional mechanisms of causality ." </P> <P> Detractors argue that the phenomenon is the result of the mind's tendency to think it recognizes patterns amid disorder by discarding data that does not fit . Psychologists refer to this tendency as apophenia, or confirmation bias . In this theory, a Dark Side of the Rainbow enthusiast will focus on matching moments while ignoring the greater number of instances where the film and the album do not correspond . </P>
