Message: [QUOTE="SVCBeercats, post: 2745829, member: 7874"] 5..All-color could be translated, as you did, as all THE colors. Or it can mean simply, no longer black and white. My but you picked a tough question to answer definitively. The first color films (not black and white) were hand colored dating to 1900 in Germany and to England in 1902. Actually, Georges Melies produced hand colored films in the 1890s. The first movie shot using a color filming process was “Cupid Angling” in 1918. It used an R&G split beam process. Don’t remember the processes name – not technicolor – wait it is Douglas something. I think there was another R&G movie in 1922-23. In any case the first full length movie shot in 2 strip technicolor was “On with the Show.” Hmmm maybe! Perhaps it is actually the unnamed 1922 movie. The first 3 strip technicolor was “ The Wizard of Oz” in 1939. Soooooo, if hand colored counts then we probably have to find the name of a Georges Melies 1890s film. Otherwise the answer is “Cupid Angling” in 1918. Mrs. SVC and I went to see “A Trip to the Moon” where we were introduced to George Melies. This stimulated interest in early movie production. Hand coloring uses dyes and emulsions. Prior to this the film producer tinted the film itself to coax some color into the movie. OK, another memory fragment. The first tinted movie was by the Edison Labs. So Edison’s movie was probably the very first color, not black and white , movie. I hope you are not as confused as I am! [/QUOTE]
