Description
Discover the power of colour in film, from the earliest feature films to today's blockbusters. Colours of Film explores 50 iconic movies and reveals how colour played a pivotal role in their success.
From the subtle psychological symbolism of Wes Anderson's pastels to the bold flash of red in Schindler's List, Charles Bramesco delves into the often-overlooked world of colour in cinema. Using infographic colour palettes and stills from the movies, this book offers a fresh and lively approach to film for both cinema-goers and colour lovers.
Bramesco also explores how technological advancements have shaped the course of modern cinema, from the colour palettes of the 20th Century's greatest filmmakers to the digital wonderland of modern directors.
