Title: This DVD not in Widescreen format
Review: Despite many comments here expressing disappointment that this DVD presents "Night of the Hunter" in Standard/FullFrame, the original theatrical release was at the 1.37:1 ratio (not widescreen). Therefore, the unnecessary blurb at the beginning of the film about "formatting to fit your TV screen" would refer to a barely noticeable adjustment to a ratio of 1.33:1. In fact, the large majority of DVDs slightly crop the standard theatrical aspect ratio of 1.37:1 (including those for most films released before the mid-1950s) to the 1.33:1 TV ratio. Despite the increasing popularity of widescreen ratios like 1.66:1 and 1.85:1 in American films in 1955, "Night of the Hunter"'s original aspect ratio was the older 1.37:1.
