I just watched Design For Living.
I wasn't a big fan of it. However, I do respect Noel Coward for challenging a lot of the traditional notions of gender at this time. Until the Women's Movement of the 1970s, a lot of people still had the same ideas of male and female roles that had plagued this country for centuries. During the 1930s especially, it was very uncommon and rare to see a woman with not one, but two men. It was taboo for this to occur, especially with sex in the mixture.
Overall, I guess it was okay, but it just wasn't for me.

I assume they could possibly do a frame by frame color adjustment to fix the fluctuations, but that's pretty intensive.

Ah. Thanks for clarifying!
