The Longest Day Colorized Download

I have a question for those knowledgeable about the film. While listening to the soundtrack on youtube, I came across a group of colorized clips of it. Being a fan of the movie, this surprised me (its shot in B&W). My questions are: 1.

Was it shot in color and converted to B&W later for the theatrical release; or was the original B&W version colorized post-shooting for some reason? Is the color version available for sale? I am mainly just curious - I like the B&W release just fine, but wouldn't mind watching the color version. For those that are interested, here are the clips. The colors seem significantly off (especially in the first clip), so I am guessing that it was colorized post-shooting. [YOUTUBE][YOUTUBE]Thanks for the assistance.

Colour technology was very new indeed, and actually the Germans were ahead of the game with AGFA. Hence the very good colour photos taken for 'Signal'. But for colour movie/newsreel footage, KODAK in the USA were very advanced ( just look at Wyler's 'Memphis Belle' footage ). Only toward the very end of the war were the Americans using truly portable colour cameras. Britain lagged behind Germany and America in colour combat photography, both still and black-and-white. If they were deleting all the black and white footage and films from the archives and replacing it with colourised stuff i'd agree that it was a terrible thing - the fact that they're just giving everyone the option means that more people have the chance to see these items in the format which they prefer, so it opens the genre up to many more people. If they do a good job of it, and from what I've seen it's getting better all the time, there is nothing wrong with colourising black and white at all.

I don't really mind either way, but some things are better in black and white, some better in colour. Luckily now we are starting to have the choice.

Obviously the original B&W is the first to be preserved, and justifyably so. Still, I do find myself wondering what Citizen Kane looked like in Color. • • 77 Replies • • • • • • Author Time 13-Sep-2008 3:28 PM Post link Citizen Kane never got to being colorized, I believe. That's when there was the big uproar about it and Ted Turner backed down. EDIT: Good info.

I heard or read somewhere about the dodgy qualtiy of the colorized Kong on that Uk box set. Apparently taken from an nstc vhs master and sped up to pal speed.

There has been a recent revival in the Colorization Of films especially undertaken by Ray Harryhausen for the films he worked on. I read a positive review on the Colorization of the Movie She based on the book by H Rider haggard.

Author Time 13-Sep-2008 5:29 PM Post link Check this out: In the 1980s, Room Service was a part of the film colorization controversy when it and other classic black and white films were colorized for television.

The film was one of only two Marx Brothers films to be colorized (a colorized version of A Night at the Opera also exists). It was not well received by fans, and today is out of print. Someone get on that stat!:) • • Author Time 14-Sep-2008 3:31 AM Post link Good. Colorized bastard versions should never see the light of day again in my opinion.

Romero's Night Of The Living Dead was the last black and white film i watched and i do have the color version but i wouldn't touch the original version because it takes out all the quality of the film. But there is no copyright law on Night Of The Living Dead so any one can own it which is the only downfall. • • Author Time 17-Sep-2008 6:53 PM Post link I preserved King Kong in Color,but as mentioned above,it was released in the UK as part of a boxset.
