From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

Since the 1970s, fictional feature films have been filmed almost exclusively in color. Before this time, most dramas were filmed in black-and-white while escapist fare, such as Westerns, musicals and comedies, were in color. Still, films from the last few decades are occasionally presented in black-and-white, sometimes due to budget constraints. This is a list of notable feature films whose majority of running time is in black-and-white or monochrome/sepia tone and made after the 1960s.

Note: this list does not include short films or documentary films.
