During my childhood, black-and-white movies were a staple on television. My mother and I watched them together. We also watched shows like The Munsters, Dragnet, Beverly Hillbillies, and the Addams Family on our black-and-white television.
Although I can’t recall the first black-and-white movie I ever saw, it may
have been one directed by Alfred Hitchcock, Billy Wilder, Frank Capra, or
Howard Hawkes due to their creative storytelling, compelling characters,
suspense, and moody grey-black tones. The cinematic artistry of these movies
began my lifelong love of black-and-white films.
