On a side note, remakes of some old *Alfred Hitchcock Presents*
episodes were shown in one movie feature last Sunday night on one
of the networks.  They took some of the old introductions of the 
television series (which featured Hitchcock) and computer-colored
them, so they wouldn't stand out against the modern color remakes.
The result was quite impressive, I thought.

I am curious:  were directors of black and white films attentive
to color when they were filming?  I would think that the directors
of old-time color features were certainly more attentive to it than
black-and-white directors.  The result might be some strange-looking
colors revealed to us through this new process.  Or am I wrong?
