well in the movies, o brother where art thou, every scene has a golden hue to it, its not the objects its the entire scene itself

that is called color correction. You just run the image through a Mix node and mix in gold. Or you can play with the chrominance levels Cr and Cb by splitting the image using a YCbCr node, changing the contrast of those channels using an RGB Curve node, and combining the channels back together. See my avatar as an example of doing this. See also my tut on Mixing emotion into images using nodes (tutorials off the wiki user manual page).

There’s a glow effect in the Sequence Editor.
