Colour Coding in Elephant according to Gus Van Sant

  • YELLOW: “Only two characters dress in Yellow, and they both work to save people. Yellow shows that these people are… angels, of a sort.”
  • RED: “Red represents death. Although not everyone who wears red, or is near red, dies, everyone loses something. Everyone. Even the exits in this school are red, if you look.”
  • BLUE: “In the last 20 minutes, the film goes blue/white. It becomes gloomy, and dark. This is because Eric and Alex have taken over the film and now we see things filtered through their palette.”
