Is black and white inherently more creepy? This picture was just silly in color. Why?

I think black and white makes everything more serious. Maybe it is the good/bad starkness of white and black. Or maybe those of us in the color TV generation think of black and white pictures as more historically important and therefore more 'art-y'.
Technoprairie, I really like the point about black and white invoking a time gone by. Isn't it the case that our mental picture of the Civil War is entirely black and white--and therefore incredibly bleak--while our mental picture of the Revolutionary war, informed as it is by paintings, is in color and subsequently far more cheerful.
I never thought about the Revolutionary War/Civil War contrast, but you are right! The Civil War in my mind is in black and white.
