Scene construction, set design, costumes, they are a different game when one works in black and white. One has to pay a lot more attention to the contrasts of light and dark. It amuses me to think about all those men of the black and white era. I've always wondered what the true colors of their suits were and such things.
One of the other things about the older movies that I love is that they do without all the fancy camera tricks we have now.
