Well, it’s either that or the director hasn’t filmed the movie properly. As it turns out, both of these thoughts were wrong. Movie scenes becoming darker and darker seems to be a choice made during filming! Before you rush off to the video to find out more, let's take a look at today's sentence and its pronunciation tips.
