    I love these old films, they remind me of my childhood, although this one is from six years before I was born, I love the simplicity of the time and the way we could so easily believe the storyline and what the equipment etc made us wonder about the future let alone what, was, the present for us.

    • @whitesapphire5865
      @whitesapphire5865 7 місяців тому +3

      My own take on it is simply this, If it was made in black and white, it should be shown in black and white. Adding colour after the fact is a sham, and the results are most often poor, with the picture taking a sickly orange/purple hue. Colours fail to track with the action, and almost always result in an unstable colouring which constantly changes as the action moves within the frame.
      Unless you are Paramount, Columbia, Fox Studios etc. colourisation is best left alone, and even then, the colours are at best only an interpretation of what the colourist thinks they should be.

    All these old movies have the same theme.

Oh, I forgot the woman running and falling down and breaking her ankle. All the skeptics laughing and grinning get killed. There is always some pet.

    • @melodiefrances3898
      @melodiefrances3898 7 місяців тому +3

      Black and white films were made well into the 60s and beyond, although less so.
      It could be an artistic choice or a $$ choice.
      There are two versions because someone colourized it. But many of us prefer the original black and white, and, thankfully, these also get loaded, as is the case here.

    • @jacquelinebell6201

    • @sunbeam8866
      @sunbeam8866 3 місяці тому

      Compared to most '50s science fiction, 'Forbidden Planet' was a major studio film. Color was expensive, and usually reserved for a big -budget blockbuster, western, or musical. Which is why I really enjoy the occasional rare '50s crime dramas, like 'A Kiss Before Dying' and Violent Saturday' that were filmed in color.

      I recently salvaged an old paperback about "supernatural" experiences of celebrities. One of the stories was that Jim Davis haunted the Dallas set, in a friendly way. The actors said they would see him out of the corner of their eyes, as if he was trying to be in the scene. I just thought you would enjoy that anecdote. I think he was underrated, at the same time getting plenty of work. Every George Montgomery movie would have been better with Jim Davis, IMO.
