When I was child, I used to believe that, when the pictures were in black and white, people lived without colours. I wondered what happened when the colours appeared: "Was it at one go or progressive? What was the reaction of people?". So I asked to my grandparents and they laughed. Now, of course, I no longer believe at this.
