I love it. A movie about mosquitos, but you have an outdoor love scene without the ever present curse.
The colored photos aren't that bad, but have never gotten used to the pink cheeks.
It would be great if at least a few of Bob's movies were in color. The Gallant Hours (1960) would definitely have worked well in color. Bob wanted it to be, but the United Artists money people vetoed the idea. Here Comes Mr. Jordan (1941) would be fun in color as would Piccadilly Jim (1936).
Perhaps Vanessa: Her Love Story (1935) would have been saved if made in color. With that kind of money sunk in the movie, someone surely would have spent the extra effort to produce a decent script. Whomever decided to chop the movie down from 100+ mins. down to 74 without spending much effort to give it an understandable storyline, should be .... hung!
