Black And White Glamour Girl

• Manga (Japanese or Japanese-influenced comics) are typically published in black-and-white including American comics.
• Jet magazine was either all or mostly black-and-white until the end of the 20th century, when it became all-color.
• School yearbooks have (historically) been printed either entirely or mostly in black-and-white. All-color school yearbooks are still rare, but more common than before.
Today black-and-white media often has a "nostalgic", historic, or anachronistic feel to it. For example, the 1998 Woody Allen film Celebrity was shot entirely in black-and-white, and Allen has often made use of the practice since Manhattan in 1979. Other films, such as American History X and Pleasantville play with the concept of the black-and-white anachronism, using it to selectively portray scenes and characters who are either more outdated or dull than the characters and scenes shot in full-color. This manipulation of color appears in the film Sin City and the occasional television commercial. Wim Wenders' 1987 film Wings of Desire uses sepia-tone black-and-white for the scenes shot from the angels' perspective. When Damiel, the angel (the film's main character), becomes a human, the film changes to color emphasising his new "real life" view of the world.
