What about the trill in the iconic melody of 'The Good, The Bad and The Ugly'? It's all part of the eerie mood of that theme.

Especially in that opening motif.

Ok, so I was being a bit broad brush. There are many valid trills, but they tend to be integral to the writing of the music (see strings in classical music for example). I was using it as shorthand for when people, especially vocalists and guitarists but also your Jools Holland types, fart around with a note instead of holding it or cutting it. I'm off outside now, to shout at some clouds.

Whistling too...

 

...except for in that movie.
