This discussion might well destroy the whole internet My brain goes one step further. Once you track colour (or lack of), there would probably be a push to track the (I don't know if this is the correct term) "colour system". Even with my limited knowledge/appreciation of older films, I do know that some of the different systems produced vastly different colour representations. Personally, I like Metrocolor. Now to show my naivety some more... from my understanding, there are two factors at play. There's the film stock that the movie was shot on, and then there's who/how processed it. Is that correct? If so, it's a slippery-slope if we ever start tracking *that*! | | | Adelaide Movie Buffs (info on special screenings, contests, bargains, etc. relevant to Adelaideans... and contests/bargains for other Aussies too!) |
