Had to write a visual and plot analysis of this movie for my German class one time (yeah, don't understand why either) and I fucking hate this movie since then.

Tarantino-vision aside, the taller framing in this shot is clearly superior, and it looks like it could be in other shots as well.

Open-matte works better for al most all close, personal shots (at least when it's been properly framed as such). It's the sweeping landscapes and large scope action shots that benefit from wide screen IMHO.

All those comparison shots done for Sinner showcases this. The interiors largely look better at 4:3 while the exteriors in 2.39 or whatever he used.

Are you thinking of A.I.? That was a Kubrick concept that Spielberg executed.

That's funny, not sure why I had it mixed up. My bad.

They finally release epstein list, only the hollywood version.

I don't know about the remaster, kubrick is long dead and in hollywood restoration is too often synonym with renovation, which is never good for a work of art.

This is one of the 99s that I was waiting for. Need Fight Club and The Ninth Gate next (would also love House on Haunted Hill) to get the 4K treatment and then I'm happy. 1999 movies have something about them—they capture that time from one decade/century/millennium in just a unique way that other years haven't.

Looks great. Can't wait to see it.

There are MANY highly informative episodes but again, be patient with the hosts. They're industry Hollywood people and tend to go on repetitive and performative tangents.

This was a great listen, thanks for the suggestion! I'll be checking out their other episodes too.

It's hard to believe that this movie is that old now.

This movie is as old now as American Graffiti, Serpico, and The Exorcist were when it was released, which absolutely blows my mind.

Absolutely adore it. Saw it twice on opening day and a couple more times during its original theatrical run. Most people other than dedicated cinephiles hated it around the time of release. It was nominated for 0 Oscars.

Many of those episodes have given me a new point of view and respect even for movies I already loved. It's a great concept for a podcast.

Glad I was able to introduce a fellow film lover to it.
