Title: Hidden Aspect Ratio on DVD, unfortunately not correct.
Product review: I really wish that it were true that the original ratio is there, but just squished, as stated by Gary E. Maisack (Sorry Gary. Honest mistake, I'm sure buddy. ) But anyone with this DVD can check it out for themselves. The frame has been cropped and this is not a wide-screen version in any form. The proof: the picture on the back of the DVD. Look at the actors standing around. Go to the same scene in the movie and voilà: one actor is now cropped out, another is only half there.The only reason I point this out: Demand a Blu-ray of this great classic! Universal Studios put out Flash Gordon on Blu-Ray, but not this work of art. It's still in it's VHS release format. Shameful!
