There is an emotional scene at the 2/3 mark of the film wherein the young boy and young girl are divided by a beam of light. They are sitting on the floor and a film projector’s light divides them. On the sixth viewing of Super 8 I fairly disintegrated thinking about the profundity of this scene, the way really only light ever divides us—the medium that carries the image of us to our beloved. And how we make love in the dark so that nothing divides us.

And how monsters get us in the dark.
