It is about two major components, design and composition. One design hand, not only in this scene, but also the whole movie’s tone tends to use bright lighting to emphasize on the nervous environment in 1970s.

Another one of the main examples from the movie is at the end when the townspeople fight one another because of the colors changing. The basic characters who have not experienced emotion are still seen as black and white, how they think things should be.

In the beginning of the movie, the first example that applies the “box” concept of the film is the scene where Francis and a man are sitting on a bench, having a discussion in the middle of a garden.
