    Charles Bramesco's Colors of Film: The Story of Cinema in 50 Palettes

    Favs/dislikes: 5:0. Taking you from the earliest feature films to today, Colours of Film introduces 50 iconic movies and explains the pivotal role that colour played in their success. The use of colour is an essential part of film. It has the power to evoke powerful emotions, provide subtle psychological symbolism and act as a narrative device. In Colours of Film, film critic Charles Bramesco introduces an element of cinema that is often overlooked, yet has been used in extraordinary ways. Using infographic colour palettes, and stills from the movies, this is a lively and fresh approach to film for cinema-goers and colour lovers alike. He also explores in fascinating detail how the development of technologies have shaped the course of modern cinema, from how the feud between Kodak and Fujifilm shaped the colour palettes of the 20th Century's greatest filmakers, to how the advent of computer technology is creating a digital wonderland for modern directors in which anything is possible. ​Filled with sparkling insights and fascinating accounts from the history of cinema, Colours of Film is an indispensable guide to one of the most important visual elements in the medium of film. I. Over the Rainbow: Post-facto Colorization (1-11) II. Unbound Imaginations: Kodak & Fujifilm (12-24) III. Making a Statement: Color Theory (25-41)* IV. Digital Wonderlands: The Color TV (42-52) *Three Colors Trilogy is considered one entry, thus 52 movies.

    Best Thriller Movies and Best Drama Films Based(Inspired) On a True Story From Each Country

    Favs/dislikes: 4:0. It's my pleasure to present thriller movies with other genres -like Mystery- Thrillers and with sub-genres like -Psychological-Thrillers. Closely related Horror film genre is also on the list which you might find interest. Although drama is drama, i wanted to form an extra list (beginning with the documentary called Ashes and Snow (2005) ) of best films based on drama genre mostly ,expect other genres -in that film- such as romance, from each country. I also wanted to choose -the hope itself consisting one- where i doubted which film to add of that country. When a film belonged to many countries- such as "Babel (2006)"- i have chosen the less knowing one between them- For instance that movie has been considered from Morocco, despite it belonged to Japan and USA as well-. With that taste of choice, i considered movies the less knowing one in cinema where it filmed in another country-such as " The Stoning of Soraya M." is considered as a movie from Persia despite it is filmed in the USA". I have also added some movies which give us a great oppurtunity to see the beauty of related country. Some related movies are Island Etude (2006) from Taiwan, Kauwboy (2012) from the Netherlands. With the hope of this extra list starting with the documentary "Ashes and Snow" will be a guide for you on the drama films which are mainly based or inspired on a true story. I gave the priority of dramas of children or children related ones firstly, and then adults and older people lastly.

    There's a Story in here!

    Favs/dislikes: 0:9. Very picky list of movies that haves a story which takes the viewer on a journey and adventure worth remembering. Remember not to read the summary. It ruins the experience! Going head first into a world without the establish knowledge makes the experience all better! I would also like to add that these movies shouldn't be ranked in any number order. They are all equally GREAT!
