Black-and-White Films

 I know some young people who do not watch black-and-white films. 

I believe they miss the fact that color sometimes detracts from the story. 

"To Kill a Mockingbird" would not have the same emotional impact if it had been filmed in color.

Can you imagine refraining from seeing these black-and-white films?
