Answer #1

When the polarization directions of 2 films are parallel, we cannot see any difference between the 2 films.when they are perpendicular, we get it darker. this is because light we receive comes in a mix of polarization.The first film blocks one direction and lets half of the light to pass through. It takes a second filter perpendicular to the first to block the remainder of light.
