An upcoming showing of this often neglected film is getting showed tonight, which delights me though I am also worried about the showing aspect ratio. Recently, there was controversy over the intended aspect ratio for the film, with the recently Blu-Ray edition of the film being cropped to 1;78, while a letter director Stanley Kubrick sent to theatre owners showed his vision was to be projected on a 1;66 aspect ratio. Does anyone on this forum have inside knowledge of tonight presentation?
