Black & White

About This Movie

So, 'Black & White' from 2010 is this haunting piece set against the backdrop of Pearl Harbor. It’s interesting how it captures that raw, tense atmosphere of fear and uncertainty. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the weight of the little girl’s predicament to sink in. We don’t know much about the director, but the performances, especially from the child, really evoke a sense of vulnerability. The way the film plays with shadows and light adds to this almost surreal quality, making the audience feel the isolation. It’s about family, yes, but also about the broader implications of historical events on personal lives. It stands out for its emotional depth and its focus on a specific moment in time rather than just the event itself.
