Digital color correction is amazingly powerful. You can change any color into any other color you want. Most of the time, you set an overall correction to the scene, and all of the various hues shift consistently in relation to each other. But that isn't what I'm seeing here. I'm seeing all the reddish colors pushed to one specific red, all the yellowish colors pushed to one specific tan, and all of the blueish colors pushed to one specific teal. That isn't the way the real world works, and for an art director and cinematographer to be able to control the palette to that degree would require a lot of work on painting sets and color matching costumes, and employing a LOT of very complex lighting and spot filtration on location. Much more control than they had shooting available light in Tunesia or wherever they shot this. The color here is being digitally manipulated to create a consistent color scheme... Much more consistent than ever exists in the real world.
