Green Man	The only B&W music video that's iconic is Black - Wonderful Life. White Town - Your Woman is very close second. Most B&W videos are the same, Control the Joy Division biopic. Is pretty decent movie but the B&W look adds nothing special to the storyline same with Raging Bull. Which I found very heavy going.
JK2006	Correct Rich - those dreadful B&W videos were exactly the same as the reason that Nosferatu 2024 is so bad. Pretension.

I especially dislike TV shows nowadays and dramas for TV that attempt to be "filmic" shot. TV and cinema are meant to be different, too often nowadays TV tries to ape cinematic effect. On an artistic level I used to dislike the far too commonly overused habit that many acts did for making their music videos in black and white or even sepia for no obvious reason as if being in black and white conveyed some extra arty aspect which it never really did. Any opinion on that kind of thing?
Green Man	I did like Nosferatu with Klaus Kinski. It's so bad it's good. The original is a masterpiece despite not being a complete movie.
