The image is window-boxed at around 1.42:1 inside the anamorphic frame.
This version has been remastered from an original negative. It's also been reframed to present more of the image than the other releases. It also suffers from NTSC > PAL ghosting and the reframing makes the edge of the animation visible in some shots. (Thanks to trench for these notes)
