Yep anybody who has a reverence for things past is allright so long as they don't colourize it.
Speaking of that...Zanucks The Longest Day was done in BW, because thats the way news reels were done at the time...Zanuck was at D DAY as part of a combat photography crew....so to see that movie in colour makes me cringe.
Watched King Vidors...The Big Parade wt John Gilbert 1925....Amazing...the scenes with the French girl as she is parted from Gilbert as he goes off to battle.....the lonliness and isolation that is portrayed as you see the soldiers march past her and finially as she is alone on the road....very powerfull imagery without a sound.
