Author Topic: Schindler's List colorized? Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-16-2000 05:59 PM                        While flipping TV channels last night I saw what I'm sure was the shower scene from "Schindler's List"...in color! Was the movie colorized for cable and/or a video release? (If so I'm amazed Spielberg allowed it.)  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia.

I cannot imagine Spielberg OK-ing colourization of his film.  |  IP: Logged John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 08-22-2000 02:02 PM                        Considering the artistic achievement of "Schindler's List", I doubt anyone would endorse or approve such a modification. Spielberg and Kaminski used bits of color to reinforce the message of hope amid despair (the opening candle, the girl in the pink coat, and the closing reel). ------------------ John P.

I make that mistake all the time. ------------------ "Asleep at the switch? I wasn't asleep, I was drunk!" - Homer Simpson  |  IP: Logged
