It's A Wonderful Life Bluray - Blu-ray Forum

Watched this today, and all I can say is WOW. The PQ and colour was absolutely out of this world in my opinion. I thought they did a fantastic job of putting it in colour. What other B&W films would you like to see in colour?

-12 Angry Men
-Citizen Kane
-The Third Man
-Casablanca

Feel free to add titles

it's in color???

They offer both version on the BD, B&W and color

I personaly would only watch it in B&W

And for the OP question, none if it was made in B&W that is the only way I wish to watch it.

So I guess you lucked up and got a copy early. I'm anxious to get this myself. While I prefer black and white (since it was filmed that way), I'll definitely give the colorized version a watch to see how far they've come with that.

I always thought black and white added to the atmosphere and gave it more of a classic feel. Most of the colorized films that I seen have left alot to be desired. I am going to buy it, I will watch the color version out of curiosity.

Nope, it's out in the UK now. I picked it up at ASDA (supermarket) this morning, along with Public Enemies. Watched them both, back-to-back.

I agree about most colorized films being awful, but I thought this was perfect.

Definately check it out
