A remarkable film with a simple but thoughtful message about change in everyday life. When the townspeople open their eyes to colour, the change within themselves soon begins to show on the outside. Colour and expression is contagious! The humour, romance, drama is all here and is played by a great cast that is funny and engaging. So many memorable scenes that you won’t forget. A must watch film.

It's been a while since i've seen this one, if you could go into any TV show what would it be, and would you stay? This film was a blend of the past, and the future, showed that some people don't like change, not everything is right for everyone. colour vs non colour, what side you on? I love it! It's got great cast, it's got a young paul walker RIP dude, and a great picture, and some colour, and a little black and white, and that's what makes it shine bright.. worth your time :P

Film 140 (Goal: 300) of 2024:

Pleasantville is a better film than it had any right to be. A pretty standard idea, that of being sucked into a TV, where the world is of a 60s sitcom where the world is perfect and everything is in black and white. With the introduction of two teenagers from the 90s More
