Would the 1994 film "The Shadow" have benefited from being in black & white?

 

Just wondering if making it more period with black & white film stock and (as much as I love the soundtrack) a period appropriate music score.  Using Orson Welles' sensibilities from "Citizen Kane" with the gorgeous atmosphere and innovative camera angles and just the epic contrast, I think the film would take on a whole different feel.  A bit of editing would help.  Just a thought...
