I've been experimenting with an automatic colouriser, based around Caffe from Berkeley (caffe.berkeleyvision.org/) and the colouriser based on it from Richard Zhang et al (richzhang.github.io/colorization/)
The film is Killers From Space (1954) from archive.org/details/Killers_from_space
The Python script I mangled together uses multithreading to process as many images in parallel as the system can handle, provided there's enough RAM. This clip took about four hours to render on an i7 laptop.
