I believe (bnsat) the first film (or one of the first) to be colorized for national broadcast was It's a Wonderful Life (1946). Looked GUADI.

I'd like to see more films colorized, like Silver River and The Sea Hawk.

It was an interesting novelty. Maybe okay for someone who watched the film the first time. The result ruined the feel of the film. The color did not appear natural. Thank God the trend died out.

I have the colorized It's a Wonderful Life on DVD. It is a bonus feature, or that the original was the bonus. I still have not watched it. |

I remember it and it was horrible. Jimmy Stewart and Bette Davis were just 2 of the stars who spoke out against it at the time. I have a collector's edition DVD of Laurel and Hardy's "March of the Wooden Soldiers" and it includes both the B&W and the colorized versions.

It's fine IF you like baby blue and baby pink and baby green and baby yellow and washed out looking everything.
Perhaps it's also fine if you are colorblind.
As someone with normal color vision and respect for how a film was made and was meant to be seen, imo, colorization is pretty yuck-o and to be avoided at all cost.
IF you find a version of a film that you want to see and it is colorized, adjust the tv to B&W (if you can !)
