Silent film
Tonight the rest of the family are watching I film. I started off watching it but then the phone rang so I went out to answer it and then came upstairs - because I couldn't distinguish what was being said in the film. I know my hearing is not the best, but why is the audio on films so poor and why, oh why, do people have the sound so low when watching home videos? They don't talk to each other that quietly.

Movies (from film) typically have a larger dynamic range than TV. Keeping the dialogue at a comfortable level means the neighbors may be incommoded by the 'splosion bits. Some TVs have a dynamic range compressor that keeps the loud bits from being too loud.
