> i'm convinced now that the 4:3 version we see floating around today is the full, spherical shot 35mm film dump, and not the matte'd pov the director intended. very interesting.
There’s a film I can’t recall the name of now that was shot on 35mm and matted to 1.85:1 for cinematic release.
There’s a scene in it where a male character is naked, but only visible from the waist up.
The television and home video release is matted to 4:3 using more vertical area from the original 35mm frames. This allows you to see that the character isn’t actually nude, they’re wearing underwear. It kind of ruins the scene.
I’m getting old – I can’t even remember what film it is, only the issue caused by different matting for cinematic and television aspect ratios.
