When written/chosen well, of course...
an example I have used for this is:
Star Wars Episode IV - A New Hope - Final scene with "Our Heros" receiving medals and admiration of all those around them. Take the sound off and see how effective that scene is without the music. Or mute the sound here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSZB0NjRqzc
John Williams really made that movie the event it was.
