My eyes must not have the same number of color receptors as everyone else because honestly, if you hadn't pointed out the change in Scully's hair, I wouldn't have noticed it. In fact, her hair still looks red to me, in both the pilot and the movie, not the bright red I most associate with her, but not brown or blond.
What is odd about the movie is that the color she dyed it for the press conferences and so on was a much richer shade of red.
I wonder if the film's stylists, or whoever it is that makes decisions like that, just got the color wrong and by the time they figured it out, it was too late. Maybe they thought the color would show up redder than it did. The movie is very darkly lit. I also think the Scully shade of red hair Gillian wore in the series is not that flattering a color as we age, unless you're a natural redhead, of course. It's not that flattering a color, period, for most people. YMMV, of course.
Red hair must not be a kink for me because I hadn't noticed that all of these women had red hair, except Scully, of course. I noticed the awesomeness, though. <3
