It has been a while since I have seen anything in good ol' black and white.
I heard that they went against the studio to release it sans color, and I'm very happy they did. The film is good. But I think what is launching it into such esteemed status as of late is that very choice. The lack of color washes the setting to the point where you know it's there but gives you the freedom to dive into the characters even deeper because it's not stealing your eye.
Another great choice was the actors who were cast.
A lot of big names read for this film. But the ones selected were excellent in my opinion, especially Dern and Forte. First off they are interesting choices, in a good way. They aren't just bland/pretty faces. Second, they don't come with a lot of filmography baggage so its not hard for the viewer to believe that they are these characters.
This was a welcome vacation from the recently experienced hyperactivity of Lego Movie. So sit down, get comfy and enjoy Nebraska's subtlety in all it's grandiosity. God knows you don't want Mrs. Grant to show you later what you've missed out on! Should See. Trailer IMDB
