…Maybe I’ll be watching super-8 home videos, ” Alecto told her, smiling bleakly. “I love my super-8 camera, it’s an Eastman Kodak one… Kodak stopped manufacturing them, the world went digital and now Kodak has stopped making Kodachrome film and all kinds of traditional film products… it’s sad.” “Well, uh… well, have fun watching your home movies then, ” Mandy finished, but she didn’t have the slightest idea what he was talking about.

About This Quote

Alecto and Mandy are talking about how technology has changed our world. Alecto regrets the loss of Kodachrome film, a type of slide film that is no longer manufactured by Kodak. Mandy does not understand this because she has never used slide film before. She is at the disadvantage because her knowledge is only limited to today’s technology. Technology has moved on and made us forget some things that were important in the past.
