Episode 533 | Unveiling Reality”: Exploring Peter Ustinov’s Black and White Perspective

In a world where most of us associate reality with vibrant colors, Ustinov's choice to present "Billy Budd" in black and white raises intriguing questions. Ivor Montagu, being one who questioned it, found Ustinov's response peculiar, realizing that the audience lacked disbelief. Should they have found it strange? Can a film rid of color actually appear more real to us? In this episode, we'll explore the complexities of perception, the power of artistic illusions, and how these forms of art have developed over time.Credits:
