Title: colour of social realismAuthor: Street, SarahArticle type: ArticleLanguage: English
Description: Examines the impact of Eastmancolor, a cheap and widely available colour film stock, on British social realist films of the 1960s. At a time when social realist films were predominately filmed in black and white, the introduction of colour had repercussions on the representational and aesthetic aspects of the sub-genre, leading critics to label its use as inappropriate. This article looks at examples of films released during the 1950s and 1960s, which used colour in inventive ways to accentuate the themes of social realism. Examples include: A Kid for Two Farthings (1955), Miracle in Soho (1957), Sapphire (1959), Flame in the Streets (1961), Some People (1962), The Family Way (1966) and Poor Cow (1967).
