When I import my footage into Premiere, it seems contrast is being added to it. What was properly exposed footage looks like it has crushed blacks and blown out whites. I have not added any effects and there are no master clip effects added. When the footage is in a sequence, I can create an After Effects Composition, and the color returns to normal. I am looking for a solution inside Premiere so I don't have to create AEcomps for every clip. It affects both .mov and .mp4 files.
.mov
.mov AEcomp
.mp4
.mp4 AEcomp
Thank you in advance.

Update:
I have tried the same video on an iMacbook Pro computer with updated Premiere and AE. There was no issue with the colors. This problem might be specific to Premiere on iMac Pro systems.
I also created a GIF to better demonstrate the difference between footage in Premiere and the same footage routed through After Effects.

After Effects displays the colors correctly. Premiere doesn't. Why is this so?
