Re: Ken McAlinden...
Thanks for explaining this. You have a future in film restoration -- or possibly public relations.
Re: Darren Gross...
None of the footage used for the laser disc was from a work print. It was either from trims (from either a number of standard long version prints or from 2 or 3 "preview" prints which were produced, cut and re-cut to various forms -- from about 219 minutes in the summer of 1963 through 195 in mid-November; or from a production reel, which was probably used for either stockholders meeting or as a preview for theatreowners.
Re: Peter Kline...
The majority of 70mm MW prints were rectified -- specially produced for the number of theatres with huge curved (many with a 17 foot setback -- distance between edges and center of screen -- and full strips. Very few of the prints were produced in a standard 1.25 anamorphic linear fashion. The rectification would remove the anamorphosis from the center of the image, and add more to the edges, which would be "normalized" by the curve of the screen.
