The blue of Barry Jenkins's 'Moonlight' is soft yet deep, the blue that colours black men in the night. It creates a sense of tranquility and melancholy that pervades the film.
The blue is cold and luminescent, a kind to electric blue that was invented with the invention of electricity. The blue is used to create an atmospheric and dystopic future world filled with white and blue beams of harsh light.
Shunji Iwai is a master of making films about loneliness in our technological world. The colour palette of the film alternates between soft whites and blues. The scenes in blue are intensely melancholic and isolating yet have warmth in them.
