In this episode, we delve into Peter Ustinov's adaptation of Billy Budd based on Herman Melville's novella and the critiques he received based on his choice to portray it in black and white. We try to make sense of why the use of black and white feels more "realistic" in films as such rather than the use of color. Does our background and culture affect the way we portray these colors or is it a natural reaction? Please join our conversation as we attempt to solve this mystery of reality and illusion.
