Technology in movies
The other night Andy and I watched the movie “Disturbia.” My wife didn’t want to watch it because she had heard it was scary, so we decided to watch it. It wasn’t scary. One of the scenes consists of the main character’s friend running through the murderer’s house. The friend is holding a video camera as he runs, so you can see what is going on. The part that I find intriguing about this part is that after he friend comes back the main character is looking at the poor quality video that is on the camera and somehow zooms in beyond the possibility of the resolution of the camera to see a dead body whose face is visible through some vent holes. Unless he’s working for the government, I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t have access to any kind of software that do what he did.
