the film plays a 1950's film I am lost for a moment; dancing to the blues and looking into the eyes of a lover -they're grey. grey eyes. grey skin. grey lips. grey ballroom. grey. grey. grey. -everything is grey. But his eyes are a deep grey with light specks, and the tiles on the floor are patterned with different shades, and he is dressed with dark grey attire -but he is the most colourful thing I have ever seen. In a colourful world you would think things would be complementary; but the more colourful it appears, the more black and white it is; the carpet is red, just red, the walls are white, just white, his eyes are brown. Just brown. but in this film his eyes are grey -light, grainy, grey. There's grey in his eyes, and there's grey all around me, but my, I seem to have gotten lost; his eyes are the most colourful things I've ever seen in my life. the film stops.
