Orange and Teal, or How “Re-Mastering” is Distorting Our View of Classic Films - Not on Blu-ray

Films being released for the first time in high definition are being tampered with in an anachronistic way. This misrepresents both the film-makers intent and distorts film history. This essay explores the causes and effects of this, and takes its title from the most obvious of these changes.

These may seem like small things, but are damaging when placing a film in a historical context, especially when the original sound design was Oscar winning. The sad thing is that in a hundred years time, the only copy of Badlands in existence may be the Criterion Blu-ray. 

 The problem is a loss of texture. The only copies of 1980s films our grandchildren are likely to see will have a 1980s base, with a layer of 1990s revisionist editing, an early 2000s remixed soundtrack and an 2010s coat of orange and teal paint.

So now we have classic movies that are freed from the limitations of their time, presented grainlessly with modern hues and color choices combined with booming multi-channel sound-tracks produced by the lowest bidder as part of a purely commercial process to provide product for consumption.
