I did not see the film in theaters as I was 12 at the time, but I racked dozens of plays of the DVD version, which has the green tint and looks "correct" to me.

(Edit: Apparently the 1999 DVD did not have the tint, but I that's not what I remember...)
It would be interesting to do a comparison between the green tint version and the "untinted" / neutral without the issues with highlights/whites.

- turdnagel 5y agoThank you for sharing that. I just watched the 2018 UHD Blu-ray and compared with an earlier Blu-ray 1080p release. To my eyes, everything is shifted to be a bit more blue, not green, and specifically in the skin tones. There is definitely a tint in both versions, but skin tones aren't as affected in the earlier versions vs. the later ones.
