At the Movies: Seeing Red
The first movie to be made using color film was called A Visit to the Seaside and was released in 1908. Since that monumental day in cinematic history, color has become one of the defining attributes of modern film making. Last week, I looked at films where the color green was of utmost visual importance. Today, we shall consider films where the color red takes a starring role:

I saw Home Alone on tv the other night and was struck how every scene had a touch of red. The film takes place at Christmas so red is the dominant color whether in clothing, furnishings or wall paper.
