i just googled it and it says they filmed it in colour first and then changed it to black and white when editing so i don't see how it made it ci learnt

i learnt that kassovitz decided to change it to black and white due to the low budget- he couldnt afford expensive props or effects to make the background look more aesthetic or visually appealing so when it was done he thought the sets looked awful and so thats why he changed it to black and white

im doing un long dimanche too, do you have any predictions? manech hasn't seemed to come up much yet :smile:

)

don't really have any ideas on predictions but the trend of the Qs seem to be:

cinematographic techniques
-specific ones mentioned
-its purpose

themes
-debate on whether film suits this theme or that theme more
-importance of certain themes
-how certain themes r shown

characters
-comparisons
-their actions n behaviour (how others r affected by this)
-links between characters

what do u think?

i would like a question like that- it will give you the opportunity to talk about how the sun is a secondary character in the book and you could talk about its significance and contextual background
