- boredguy8 16y agoAgreed, though at times "Hero" is borderline heavy-handed with color. However it manages to remain beautiful. One thing I've learned, though, from a set-designer friend, is that nearly every movie is highly attuned to color and lighting. If you're looking for other films that use color in interesting ways, check out the "Three Colors Trilogy" by Kieslowski.
- presidentender 16y agoDid you perchance see Star Trek: Nemesis? That was the most heavy-handed use of color in film I've ever seen.
- psadauskas 16y agoIf ST:N was the most heavy-handed you've seen, then I guess you haven't seen Transformers. Or any blockbuster action movie made in the last 5 years. http://theabyssgazes.blogspot.com/2010/03/teal-and-orange-hollywood-please-stop.html http://theabyssgazes.blogspot.com/2010/03/teal-and-orange-ho...

- boredguy8 16y agoWe're talking about color as a storytelling element, not as a mechanism to get a visual pop.
- bobds 16y agoSame here, I remember loving the vivid imagery of that movie. I watched "The Fall" recently and this is the first one that came to mind. Highly recommended: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0460791/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0460791/
