The B/W delusion



I'm tired of watching films portraying the past in black and white, or in primitive colours.

I expect these films to show me what life was like back then, and all the pictures in my head are either black and white or pale yellow/pink backgrounded. Films are supposed to help you understand those times, but all one can see is how films looked back then.

This is a cliché, probably introduced by the West, but one that film-makers all around the world are afraid to step out of, even today, and it really needs to change.

Black and white photos look awesome, though.

Sein Wörter sind ja schön, Aber liebe sie nicht zu sehr, Er sagt wie es ist richtig, Aber es ist nur sein Meinung, Glaub nicht die Wörte...
