Contrast. If a scene is largely dark, a bright spot will appear brighter than if that brightness were to fill the whole screen. Likewise if a scene is dark and then cuts to a completely white screen, our eyes will have to adjust to the change in brightness, and it will appear brighter than it actually is.
