Movie Mumblers

[24 Grams]

Am I the only one who struggles to hear what actors are saying? How come films from the past (40s etc) are easier to understand than modern flicks when they had only primitive recording technology? Or maybe I need another hearing test?

Thoughts?

People like to blow their eardrums on the audio. There is nothing like a ripping soundtrack for some, I think, you know, fuck the movie.

You can always switch to closed captioned if it is required but I understand what you mean.

There's too much background music in most films.
