“Healthy” Films
PROJECTION OF NATURAL | COLOUR GIVES BENEFIT ; TO ONLOOKERS RAYS ARE REFLECTED Motion pictures filmed in natural colour make for the better health of moviegoers, in the opinion of William Hoyt Peck, noted authority on colour photography. “The infra-red and ultra-violet rays both are projected on the screen from the colour film,” he says, “and these are deflected back on the audience and are conducive to new vigour. Colour cannot be seen without also being felt. Every colour throws off invisible waves which effect the emotions, the nervous systems of human beings. Even a colourblind person is affected by natural colour light waves, though he sees only in monotone. “Red is perhaps the most stirring of all colours. It is so magnetic w-hen seen in any fair percentage, that it can create an irresistible desire. It particularly arouses the emotion of love. Heat waves are infrared and everybody knows how much the body demands heat.”
