Reality is in color...Not b/w...
Wikipedia: Film Colorization
In the mid-1980s, the process drew controversy after Topper and then Way Out West became the first black-and-white films to be redistributed in color using the colorization process.[9] Defenders of the process noted that it would allow black-and-white films to have new audiences of people who were not used to the format. Detractors complained (among other reasons) that the process was crude and claimed that even if it were refined, it would not take into account lighting compositions chosen for black-and-white photography which would not necessarily be as effective in color.[10] Figures opposed to the process included Roger Ebert, James Stewart, John Huston, George Lucas and Woody Allen.
