I remember reading this book. It was really good; hopefully, the movie does it justice.

Maybe they'll try to pass it off as a black and white film, and then those who never read the book will get the twist when we find out it's a colored world, but these particular people are desaturated.

Yeah, maybe the twist will be made so that
