Colorful movies
Finally caught "Curse of the Golden Flower" over the weekend (which I liked) and kept thinking it was probably the most colorful movie I had ever seen. For that alone it should have probably won best art direction or cinematography this year at the Oscars.

That said, what some other colorful movies that come to mind?

Citizen Dog from the director of Tears Of The Black Tiger
Most of the AIP Corman Poe films from the 60's have quite garish color palettes as well.

Many of the Technicolor movies are very, very colorful. Even more colorful than most (if not all) movies made nowadays.
