The Treasure of the Sierra Madre: Question

B. Traven was a curious guy, some of his writing is great, some kind of boring. But if you are in the mood to read something really depressing and haunting, try his "The Death Ship".

I seem to recall that TNT or TBS(one of Ted Turner's tv stations) colorized not only The Maltese Falcon, but Treasure...............I recall at the time being disgusted by the whole process. I was so distracted by the color, I stopped 'watching' the movie, if oyu take my meaning.also, The Left Hand of God was shot in color...............good flick.............worth a look............
