And there are still #orthochromatic films like 100 years ago. The red appears very dark here, like black as the film is not sensitive to red light.
Back in the early days of movie making actors actually put blue or green lipstick as a red lipstick would have been a very gothic move ;-)
Panchromatic black and white film came much later.
