== Black-and-white film? == |

No strong opinion on this, but how do editors feel about this being categorized as a black-and-white film? Parts of it apparently were filmed in black-and-white, though obviously the majority of the film is in color, and the category has no notes regarding how it's intended to be used. ] (]) 13:14, 20 June 2024 (UTC) |

:I feel like we could use another category, like "Color films with black-and-white scenes". ''Dune Part Two'' and ''Kill Bill Vol. 1'' could be other films part of that category (that I can think of right now). ] (] | ]) <sup>(])</sup> 13:35, 20 June 2024 (UTC) |

::I'm not inherently opposed to that, though if such a category were to be created, I can imagine arguments ensuing as to whether a quick B/W flashback is sufficient for membership in that category (e.g. '']''). ] (]) 14:30, 20 June 2024 (UTC) |

:::Yeah, that's why I don't care too much about categories. The category criteria can be for the black-and-white scene(s) to be explicitly mentioned in the article body. Looked up and found a few other good ones -- ''Oppenheimer'', ''Asteroid City'', ''Pleasantville'', ''Memento'', ''American History X'', ''Natural Born Killers''. ] (] | ]) <sup>(])</sup> 18:47, 20 June 2024 (UTC) |

::::I'm not unwilling to create such a category, though you might have more experience with it (or might not!), but then there's the question of whether such a category should be a subcategory of B/W films or separate. I'm guessing you feel it should be the latter, but I don't want to make assumptions, and I definitely don't want to create a category that's just going to end up at CfD. :p Or, if you want to go ahead and create it with your own ideas, be my guest! ] (]) 19:42, 20 June 2024 (UTC) |

:::::Actually, I remembered this: ]. It's horribly unsourced, but I do see most of the films discussed above, showing up in that list as not exclusively B/W. That may be better in the long run, especially if sourcing can be required for that list and sourcing actually added. Not by me, though... I still gotta finish overhauling ] (have done too much to give up). ] (] | ]) <sup>(])</sup> 20:10, 20 June 2024 (UTC) |

::::::So, you think we should leave this film categorized as a B/W film and let that list handle what's likely to be the majority of instances where a film mixes B/W and color footage? I have no objection to that either. It feels weird to have Wizard of Oz listed as a B/W film, but I understand that categories aren't exclusive ORs. ] (]) 20:26, 20 June 2024 (UTC) |

I know it's very early, but with 10 years to go until the film becomes public domain, just wondering which remaster of the film we will upload to Wikimedia Commons when the time comes. I'm thinking it should be the more recent remaster from 2018 used for the 4K Blu-ray release as it is the highest-quality and most detailed print of the film to date and restores the original colors.
