I was doing some channel analysis tonight and I remembered something you guys might not have seen before:  Carrie's camisole visible under her robe.

FWIW, I've been able to make that out for a long time.

But wow, there's a lot of purples and greens in the highlights. I never realized how many hints of color there were in the Tantive scenes, everyone always assumes that it was all monochrome whites and blacks.

Gil Taylor's cinematography/lighting* in the Tantive and Death Star scenes was monochromatic, sure, but the more I look at it, the more I see that it's only with successive inaccurately timed releases that they've become truly monochrome (i.e., black/white/gray).

*Not sure how much of a role gaffer Ron Tabera had in designing the lighting. Come to think of it, SW is his only credit anywhere. What else did this guy do?
