Do You Dream in Color?

At the beginning of the 20th century, most people dreamt in black and white, but by the 1960s the dreamscape had shifted, with the majority of sleepers reporting color dreams. A new study by Eva Murzyn, a British psychology student, has found that while almost all people under the age of 25 now dream in color, many over the age of 55 still report dreaming in black and white. "It suggests there could be a critical period in our childhood when watching films has a big impact on the way dreams are formed," said Murzyn. Sharing your love of classic cinema with your children, in other words, could color the way they dream for life.
