Recenzii
In his multifaceted Color It True, Pomerance, an independent film scholar, takes readers on a dreamlike, surreal, personal journey through how he sees color being used in films internationally.
Through prose as invigorating and engaging as many of the films explored in the pages of Color it True, Murray Pomerance takes us on an unpredictable and edifying journey through the many ways color seduces in film experience. Unhampered by any single critical dogma, and interested in a diverse array of films spanning everything from spectacular epics to intimate dramas, Color it True weaves together impressions of colors in movies with their lingering afterimages, those traces of color residing in memory long after the film has departed from our view. Reading this book is a restorative experience for anyone hungry for writing on film that eschews the usual well-trodden byways of theory and method. Every page is a marvel.
A kaleidoscopic jewel-box of a film book. Each chapter a color, each segment a movie, and the specific mobilization of a hue. Together they form a dazzling demonstration of cinema's art and allure. Pomerance deploys his unique approach - lyrical, associative commentary combined with expert production knowledge and cultural command - to stunning effect, finding his way through sensation and resonance to the heart of every film he discusses, never losing sight of the essential question: why this color here?
