What is the significance of the black spot?
Mid-way through M. Night Shyamalan’s movie, Glass (2019) , there is a blurry black spot on screen for a long time. It doesn’t stay in one fixed place nor is it present throughout the whole film, so it can’t be a problem with the projector’s optics at my local theatre.
It’s too obvious and gets too much screen time to plausibly be a smudge or optical defect on the camera lens either (it would undoubtedly have been noticed). So, it must be intentional, which begs the question: why is it there? What is its meaning?
Best Answer
There is no such spot.
I watched the movie yesterday, and found no spot. Today, I reviewed his escape orchestration, around 1h13m30, and saw nothing. This video compiles a few different parts of his escape, and no spot.
If you saw this at the cinema, I have to assume it's either a cue mark, as suggested by comments, or a faulty projector.
If you do find this mark in some of the HD digital versions, please post a time-stamp or screenshot.
