My friend, the mastery of that film is due in large part TO black and white!

Incredible film and Lorre could have been an international star but for the
political climate of the day. As is stands he was one of the greatest character
actors. Ever.

If you should get to see M on the big screen, do so.

Yes it's amazing when I hear that comment. What Charles Laughton did with light was amazing in Night of the Hunter, his only film as a director.

  Aw geez, guys. I like B&W too. In fact, my favorites are The Three Stooges.

Agree. And it would have looked pretty dumb otherwise, as the year was 1931.
