Mad Max: Fury Road director George Miller believes his movie looks best without the colour though, so is getting a black and white (styled as ‘black & chrome’, sounds cooler I guess) edition cut for a new Blu-ray.
Mad Max High Octane Collection, which includes the original trilogy and a ton of other features, is out 6 December.
Last year, a film fan discerned the average colour of every frame of different films to show their distinctive colour palettes.
So I asked Eric Whipp, the [‘Fury Road’] colorist, ‘can I see some scenes in black and white with quite a bit of contrast?’
