There's a couple of interesting colour casts on this tape, when the droids land on tatooine there seems to be a yellow colour cast, almost like it was tinted to make it look more desert-y [and now I see it again this is how I remeber it from childhood viewings]. The second sequence is Ben's hutt, which as a sequence the shots seem to fit together as they are all quite shady, as if it is quite dark inside inside, I had always thought it was meant to be lighter inside Ben's hutt and the print had faded, but maybe I got the sense of the colours/lighting a bit wrong (it certainly wouldn't be the first time). The first shot in the sequence which looks faded on other sources looks more saturated and fits better on this version
And theres a sense of being in the shade thoughout the whole thing
The technicolor screening still looks quite dark as well so maybe this whole sequence is fairly shady, the source of light coming from the side windows?
