Kids Movie I Watched In Grade School With Certain Color Towns

Have you ever watched the movie The Red Balloon?

I saw this back around the same age. I searched for it some time ago on Netflix and asked them to add it to their catalog. Your question reminded me to check, and it seems that they've added it. So if you get Netflix, you can get it on there, or you can just go to the link to see some info on it anyway:

They may sell it on Amazon.com as well. I haven't seen it since I was little, but I'm guessing it's not as exciting as it was then. It's a French film, and only 34 minutes long.

Have you noticed that the colors in 90s movies (DVDs) are more pleasant and vibrant than present movies. Why is this?

One thing that has happened post 2000 (since the advent of digital colour grading) is a convergence in colour schemes of movies which have become more similar to one other.It's true that 'teal/blue and orange' colour schemes have always been used for certain scenes or certain movies:It's because they are complementary colours.But it was never used to the extent it is in movies today.There's an awesome article about this and why it's happened etc:Teal and Orange - Hollywood, Please Stop the MadnessBasically now it's a lot easier to do this colour scheme using digital grading technology where it's just the click of a button to add a drastically different colour palette to a shot.Therefore it's also easier for someone who might be concerned with what's 'trendy' to enforce their will.My favourite part of the article is where the guy shows how grotesque it is by altering the colour scheme of famous paintings to be graded in teal and orange:Take a look back at 90s movies though and this hadn't happened yet. Colour schemes were more varied with less aggressive grading, and IMO more naturalistic and pleasing colour palettes all round:That last image is from Jurassic Park.Now look at Jurassic World:Oh...

What is your favorite childhood movie and do you still watch it?

My favorite childhood movie is called Shooting Elizabeth. It's a Jeff Goldblum & Mimi Rogers movie. It's about a man who hates his wife & decides to kill her. He tells his wife that he wants to rekindle their marriage by going on vacation to an island. What his wife doesn't know is that he plans on shooting her on the island & then telling people that she left him. The night that Goldblum plans on killing Rogers, she disappears. Goldblum is initially relieved but island police begin to investigate her disappearance as suspicious after speaking with hotel staff who said they fought the night she disappeared & acted weird the next morning. Eventually, Goldblum is arrested for her murder & has to prove that he didn't kill his wife whom he planned to kill. The movie is legendary & never gets old every time I see it.

What are the best movies that use color as a predominant theme? I'm currently trying to come up with a premise and general style of a screenplay and want to use color and the change thereof as an underlying style.

The Grand Budapest Hotel!All other movies by Wes Anderson employ colors to unimaginable standardsMe : have you watched The Grand budapest hotel?My Room mate: Is that the movie where everything is purple?~Every color imaginable!~"The fictional worlds evoked in film by director Wes Anderson have such a precise colouration – the very particular pastel-hues that paint the skies, drench the buildings and dress the characters, render Anderson’s microcosms almost dream-like. The hazy-hued lens through which we peer into the director’s unique world has a retro quality that casts his films in a nostalgia for a time that could have been. The muted pink of The Grand Budapest Hotel that makes the hotel itself the biggest character in the movie; the very particular French mustard that comes to define Gwyneth Paltrow’s Margot Tenenbaum in The Royal Tenenbaums; the vintage boy-scout green in Moonrise Kingdom – all of these hues are captured in the Wes Anderson Colour Palettes Tumblr, which breaks down the shades that colour Wes’s world scene by scene with precise accuracy, and also the Movies in Color site, which considers individual frames of many films, including Anderson's, distililng them down to their myriad different shades." - AnOther Magazine & Another ManYou could also see the color palettes he employed in his other movies in the above mentioned source.

Do you consider the average 14 year old innocent?

Do you think the average 14 year old boy/girl is innocent still when it comes to extremely fowl words, complex sex positions, sexual words and violence?



For example, a mother might not want their 14 year old watching a rated R movie because of their innocents.

What is a unique gift to give a third grade teacher for an end of the school year present?

I have been a parent volunteer since my oldest started kindergarten in 1984 and have helped with numerous end of the school year parties. My youngest is in 3rd grade and I think my creativity has taken a leave of absence (or just too tired). I am just not coming up with any ideas for a teacher present this year. What are some good teacher gifts that you can think of? Some of the things I have done in the past are gift certificates to restaurants, teacher stores, sporting events, book stores; fabric painted sweatshirts, tote bags, aprons with kids' names and handprints; flowers, plants, and trees; one year I did a summer survival kit with sunscreen, a book, a sun hat, etc, in a styrafoam cooler. All of these are thoughtful gifts and appreciated by teachers. Does anyone have other suggestions for truly unique gift ideas? Thanks!
