#Hollywood released around 30 black-and-white films in 1964. By 1967, it released 2. New book High Contrast Hollywood looks at how these late period b/w movies were still innovative & dynamic as b/w was becoming obsolete. https://t.co/wQsSWGLTTy #cinematography #classicHollywood

@thequentinletts I’m pretty sure it’s Ramsay MacDonald. I saw that Monty Python sketch.

@theo_jil Being 55 means I am too old and impatient to read all this.

@DannyDrinksWine But would it have made $4 million if he hadn’t “become” Steve McQueen. They re-released it a few times to cash in on his fame.

@hellothisisivan This ties with Carry On Behind as my favourite Carry On film. Unimaginative magazine film reviewers always give them 1 or 2 stars out of 5.

@hellothisisivan I was disappointed in it. And found it hard to believe the author was struck by watching Threads aged 3 or 4.

@hellothisisivan I’ve often wondered if I’m missing something but I always think Jodie Foster didn’t get the memo about a quite lot of it being played for laughs. Maybe that’s what makes it work though?

@RexRobertus Ah, Corrie always did things first.

[Offbeat @JuUpton71]

@RexRobertus I recommend watching it just after The Sound of Music.

Around this time of year, I like to rewatch one of my favourite Christmas films.
