As for the 2:35 version receiving cinematography awards (apparently for some meaning that almost defines that the 2.35:1 framing is ‘correct’), let us not forget that there is much more than aspect ratio to cinematography than the aspect ratio that influences framing.
Lighting is for many even more important, and this is normally the DP’s responsibility, as is camera movement, positioning and lens focal length.
Some of the posts in this thread read to me as though the aspect ratio (and subsequent framing) are the only considerations in cinematography. Not so.
