Let alone selling people on the *beauty* of b&w, the fact that in capable hands it’s often more visually exciting than many color movies.

I feel like if you can get a normie interested in a pre-1980 movie you’re already halfway there. No one says “I’ll watch Kurosawa but only the color ones.” (So many amazing b&w Japanese movies.)
