Also: I have NO idea why this happens, but different #streamingServices can also make a big difference in visual intelligibility.

I've watched The Finest Hours (2016) on multiple services. It takes place mostly in the dark on a stormy ocean. One service shows this as black on black movement. Another shows everything going on in these scenes, albeit in a dark environment.

Nice to see that I am not alone in finding a LOT of modern visual media unintelligible due to how dark it is on the screen (visually, not necessarily emotionally).

This example from The Crown is excellent as it compares the modern re-creation vs the original broadcast.

#Protip: Enabling #DescribedMedia can make stories more intelligble than whatever is going on with modern directors/editors these days.
