It's just a weird case, because Gordon Willis shot it full-frame, the way he wanted it. But then it was shown in theaters widescreen (obviously, it's the dimensions of the big screen). Then it was released on video full-frame, the way he wanted it and shot it. Then they came out with widescreen videos a few years ago. And now, the DVD is widescreen-only. Oy. I guess one isn't necessarily any "better" than the other -- they're just a different. But I hope Paramount releases a full-frame version some day; for ol' times' sake
