Mr. Ellis, John Huston's film of Reflections In A Golden Eye was indeed originally released with a sepia filter which bathed the entire film in a golden glow with red the only color that stood out. Any reviews of the of the film upon release will substantiate this and this was how I saw the film in a 1967 first run engagement.
Shortly thereafter, Warners replaced the sepia prints with regular color prints which severely compromised the film. Hopefully any DVD release will be the original release print as Huston intended or at least both versions made available.
