In a 2023 interview with New Music Express, Anton Corbijn spoke about why he made the film black-and-white, with the exception of the album covers: "It started off in color and then I realized that the quality of all the archival footage was not really how I would have liked to have shot it because you have no control over that. A way to use it well would be to bring everything as a uniform look and that was in black and white. And then make the album sleeves the highlight of your day when you look at those. That worked really, really well."
