Greetings Dirk dukefan1 July 17th, 2009, 09:24 AM If memory serves me right, I believe that The Shepherd of the Hills was Duke's first color film. And yes, he did make black and white films after this one. Mark firstrebel July 17th, 2009, 11:01 AM Was Back to Bataan made in B&W and coloured later, as I recall a colour version came out before it was popular to colourize older B&W movies. Bob Lt. Brannigan July 17th, 2009, 04:14 PM Shepherd of the Hills is indeed his first color film, and he did make B&W films after that as well. He started making color films with more frequency starting right about 1954. His last two B&W films were The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance and The Longest Day. ejgreen77 July 17th, 2009, 10:04 PM His last two B&W films were The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance and The Longest Day.
