B+W or colour

never seen it in color. if you recorded it, i would love a copy.

I saw this too. Was a colourised version of the film, that is at some stage colour has been added, it seems pointless to me. When they do this to a b/w film it never looks right. Great film anyway.

I had no idea there was a version in colour that existed. Don't know how I'd feel about that, but is it fairly easy to get?

What we got here...is failure to communicate.

I'm watching the colour version on the MGM channel (New Zealand) right now. I could instantly tell it was a colourized version because it has it has that pasty look to it. But you're right, it's still an enjoyable film. Funnily enough, I think that the faded, pastel colours make the film seem older than it already is- it has the look of a 1930's colour film, like Becky Sharp.

Fiddle-dee-dee!

As a rule of thumb, the less changes made to a film after completion the better.

As a matter of principal, I won't watch a "colorized" version of anything...

In colour? Ugh....it's a black and white film! Why did they show it in colour? Sad.

If a movie is filmed in black and white, then I want to see it ONLY in black and white.
