Listen "EP 035: Frances Ha (2012), A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (2014) & Modern Black and White"
Episode Synopsis
Black and white cinematography used to be the only ways to capture moving images for film. In contemporary filmmaking, it is now only rarely used as an intentional choice by the filmmaker to capture a specific tone, setting, or atmosphere for a story. We discuss two films, Frances Ha and A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, to examine the strategy of black and white imagery in a modern lens.
