I believe The Red Shoes was the first Technicolor movie; that was a great movie that I can still watch.

Trump is having a chilling effect on the Hollywood haters.

There’s a muted mood in tout Hollywood, a general sense of unease among insiders about what’s to come. “Hollywood has not really figured out what to do yet, how to express themselves, or what’s going to be the most effective,” said Tom Nunan at the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television.

The last Technicolor movie was The Godfather: Part II in 1974. The original 1953 War of the Worlds was in Technicolor.

Martin Scorcese made a documentary about the Powell/Pressburger films, like “The Red Shoes” and “Black Narcissus”. Interesting viewing, if you like their movies.
