What the hell


This movie was shot filmed in 1962
Why was it in black and white and not in color?


Better packin' one not needin' it rather being in deep *beep* not havin' it

same reason Psycho was filmed in black and white in 1960 too add more effect

reply

Black and white remained quite common throughout the early '60s -- Seven Days in May, The Manchurian Candidate, Dr. Strangelove, Failsafe, To Kill a Mockingbird, Advise and Consent ....

And why shouldn't it have been in color? Ones not superior to the other.

I think black and white gives mor epersonallity to a film, and you concentrate on the actors more, and not the pretty colours. i also think he wanted top give a Hitchcock look to it
