Well, if FFC had preferred fullframe, I think that is what we had seen on the DVD:s. If it is what the director prefers, I prefer it.
The Godfather films were made in 1,78:1 so the difference between that and fullframe isn`t that big, but still I wouldn`t want anything else than the widescreen version of the films.
So how do you know that the fullframe-versions are not pan & scanned? I`m not trying to put on a von-oben attitude, I`m merely wondering.
