Convert raw diff file to colorized html output

Does anyone know of a script that can accept a raw diff file and pretty print HTML output (which would be easier to review/mail)? A google search returned me some results like http://kafka.fr.free.fr/diff2html/

However all of these scripts require two files as input (they don't even accept two directories). My diff output is the diff between two svn branches

A: 

I would try a syntax highlighter, e.g. pygments handles diffs just fine.

I gave it a whirl and it outputted the diff in a giant <pre> tag. The output is still not very easy on the eyes. Thanks for the suggestion though.
