With the advent of new technologies, old black and white films began to be restored, making them in color. Many fans of these paintings did not like such updates as they are used to older versions. And some people, on the contrary, accepted the colored films very rosy.
How color films appeared
The first motion pictures using color date back to around 1900. Then the French director Georges Méliès began to decorate his ribbons with aniline paints. The images have become more luminous and sparkling.
It was not possible to make a serial release, since each frame had to be carefully traced with a thin brush and under a magnifying glass.
In 1931, a large laboratory was built in Hollywood, in which color films began to be made. But the colors were too saturated, people were brown, the sky was deep blue, etc.
A truly colored Soviet film appeared in 1936 under the name Nightingale the Nightingale.
The film "Nightingale the Nightingale" is better known as "Grunya Kornakov".
