Judging this by 2018 standards, it is extremely tame, but I bet when it came out it made a splash. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gn1OMBK0Xfo Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

At 30 sec in you can see the suit she's wearing. It was in color, there is no colorized version.  If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Shows you what I know. The colors look rather fake. Perhaps the film didn't pass the test of time very well. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

The only process that held up is Technicolor, and this wasn't that. Technicolor is very interesting, there were 3 reels of film in the camera that each responded to a different color and they were exposed and pressed together in the camera itself. Very complicated, but the results were stunning. It was such a trade secret that they would haul the cameras back to the Technicolor studio at the end of every day so they wouldn't be stolen and reverse engineered for their secrets. Just advertising that your movie was in Technicolor guaranteed an extra 40% in ticket sales. Think Wizard of Oz and Gone With the Wind. I think the first Star Wars movie was the last to use the 3 film process. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
