The Movie Wheel: How to Choose What to Watch Using Colour

Do you ever get fed up of scrolling through categories on streaming sites? Then this is the book for you! Each genre has its opposite, and mixing genres is essential for every movie. Don't fall victim to a restrictive algorithm - instead of doom-scrolling the evening away, try selecting a movie by using The Movie Wheel to better predict the emotions you will experience.

The Movie Wheel also includes a mini colour-coded film directory with original artwork, making it a great gift for young people and anybody who enjoys a good movie.

Both of my grandfathers were experts with colour - one with watercolours and the other with pencils, before the days of colour printing. As a filmmaker, I find colour to be the perfect metaphor for genre. This is best understood visually, so I decided to put together some examples in order to demonstrate how my grandfathers' wisdom also applies to the world of cinema.
