The shots of Leia look wrong. Not the colors per se, but the fact that they bring out the heavy rouge makeup applied to Carrie Fisher’s cheeks and it makes her look like a china doll.

I know poita has said before that the negative transfer makes the makeup way too visible, and brings out the exaggerations that would come out looking much more natural after the image went through three extra generations to get to the release print. Should that be kept in mind, or does that go beyond the scope of color correction?
