Are you suggesting it was something like an open matte? I am picturing the flashing lights on the periphery of the image during the start of “On the Edge,” and the left and right sides are further away.
EDIT: I’m not sure I understand what you mean when you say it’s taller and wider than 1.33:1. Unless it’s because of the rounded corners, assuming it’d be projected with those just cropped out.
Dude, the kids and I are gonna have a repeat movie night in the near future. Never thought I’d see this movie in its OAR.
So pretty much the 35mm frame has a lot more picture on all sides of the frame. The DVDs use a crop that cuts out more of the sides and some of the top and bottom to get the 1:33:1 aspect ratio. With this print you could theoretically make a 1:66:1 version which would have more frame on the left and right than the DVD, but less on the top and bottom, a 16:9 framing with even more on the left and right, or a slightly taller and wider 4:3 framing. It’s pretty great because it means the movie can be shown in the aspect ratio the directors intended away from the home video releases and it can be presented in 4:3 like the VHS and DVD release. So there are all kinds of cool release that can be made with this print
