Synopsis!
"Arabesque" is a 1966 thriller starring Gregory Peck and Sophia Loren. The movie is based on Gordon Cotler's novel The Cypher and directed by Stanley Donen, who also directed Charade, Indiscreet, Funny Face, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, and Saturn 3.
Plot!
Professor David Pollock (Peck) is an expert in ancient Arabic hieroglyphics at Oxford University. A Middle Eastern Prime Minister convinces Pollock to infiltrate the organization of a man named Beshraavi (Alan Badel), who is involved in a plot against the Prime Minister. The nature of the plot is believed to be found in a hieroglyphic code. Beshraavi's mistress, Yasmin Azir (Loren) is a mystery intertwined in the plot. Pollock needs her help, but when she repeatedly seems to double cross him in one escapade after another, he can't decide on whose side she is working. Ultimately working together, Pollock and Yasmin decipher the plot and set out to stop an assassination of the Prime Minister.

@kenfig Some of that is simply due to a film not being well preserved. This trailer for example has not been preserved well (most trailers aren't) and has begun to deteriorate, hence the orange-ness. The actual film has been better preserved & looks more realistic. While, Bond films of the '60's look the same as when they came out since they are constantly being restored. (Also, keep in mind that some Hollywood movies were made with brighter or stylized colors as a conscious choice)

Why do some expensive 60s movies like this have unrealistic colour and lacks sharpness where some Brit movies of late 60s look 'real' as if its now ?
