Re: I LOVE well-done B&W

and vintage B & W negatives contained silver, which made for beautiful gradations of visual tone. "Modern" (post 1970's) B & W film uses different dyes which eliminate most of the silver; and aren't anywhere near as good as a result. I think many of Bogarts films would look terrible in Color!
