About the book: 2021 / What does Bertolucci's red, Lynch's blue and Noe's black mean? In the book, we will examine how world-famous directors work with color in their films, how they place accents and use it to set the overall mood of the film. Among the directors studied are recognized classics, such as Palme d'Or winner Ingmar Bergman, and emerging arthouse authors, like Swede Ari Aster. The collection will help you understand how the same colors can tell hundreds and thousands of different stories that complement and sometimes contradict the plot lines of films. It will also get rid of stereotypes and prove that black in the frame does not necessarily mean death and noir, but red means sex, love and passion.
