Wow! That's a pretty extreme position to take.
She can't watch Casablanca? To Kill a Mockingbird? Raging Bull?

Hmmm...
I don't know what others thin
Just because someone extols the virtues of tonality does not mean that the
subject is not paramount in their eyes.
What do you mean "at the time they were made?" B&W films are still made.
You are mistaken about B&W movies. Citizen Kane, for example, was made in
what, 1941 or so? Watch that movi

Some later films, notably of the film noire genre of starting in the
late 30's into the mid 50's, eschewed color for artistic reasons.

With B&W movies, though, there are often other factors at work.

Gotta laugh at that (not at you, John) for so often the comment made about
B&W photography is that it allows the viewer to concentrate on the subject
without the distraction of color.
When watching some movies on DVD, I turn off the color.

Hi Shel
I agree with you and wrote it in one of my last emails that most of the
first prints I receive today look oversaturated for me. BTW, which color

Nope. People are different.
My wife, for example, won't watch a B&W movie; the absence of
colour really interferes with her ability to concentrate on the
subject. I don't go quite that
Every photo you see here has been "processed on a computer" and even the
color pics have been "adjusted". Is there really so great a difference
between adding a hint of tone to a B&W photo and adding saturation to
color, or enhancing certain areas of a photograph? Or is a hint of sepia

I did a Q&D convert to B&W, and, to my eye, it looks better than in color.

If I were to rotate it, I would fill in the gap at the bottom with the clone
