Here’s the sky from the LPP:

Yes That’s it! in the DVD it is just grey (magenta tinged) clouds. That is why I guessed the 35mm would be the same but it seems it’s right sort of Blue / cyan color without any major tints which I am surprised about. Because I thought that the 35mm would closer reflect the DVD in this instance.

I have a feeling Marion and the Mummy skeleton is not that green color thinking about it. I don’t remember that. it was more sort of purpleish (not pink).

But the truck chase I really do remember those colors I shit you not. It had that greenish color really dirty when it was on TV in the UK. I distinctly remember that look with the cyan sky. And I watched that sequence so many times on VHS because I really liked the music and the action.

It’s nice to rattle the memory bells and yeah it’s obvious now the promo pics vs frames. are those frames 100% reliable I would say the truck chase definitely rings bells. And I also think Belloq at the top with the ark in a crate rings bells too (no yellow). Same for Nazi with the burnt hand looks familiar sort of color, Ball rolling Blue light yep I remember that.

And Electric Blue Sky above the opening of the snake pit.

I think that is really all there is to take away from those pics.
