Had a go at colour correcting this.

I didn’t really use anything as reference though, except for taking a glimpse at the Blu-ray remaster and seeing the walls being blue and not brown-ish; and also skin having a bit more of its own tone, rather than looking plain white. It was very quick, and just experimenting, so by no means what I’m saying it should look like lol.

Also, yeah, I did DNR, not because I’m preferring it over keeping the grain and such, but just to go ahead and add another layer to the experiment.

But yeah, what is the best reference source for colour, of this movie? And do you guys think it’ll be impossible to have as much dark detail visible as the blu-rays, with this scan?


edit:
So I only now managed to get it into my preferred colouring tool, and found a different way to CC it. Much more naturl-looking imo and it does involve less subjective adjustment:

Though, yes, still without reference
