Notes: On the cover it says English Closed Captioned. 4 page leaflet inside. On the cover only Spanish subtitles are mentioned - French subs are actually there. Aspect ratio: On the cover it's also declared: "Widescreen transfer presented in a "Matted" widescreen format preserving the 1.85:1 ratio of its original theatrical exhibiton." -> I din't get the matted concept , so I posted it...

In our entry there are "English, Spanish" subtitles. You list only "French" in the subtitle portion. Are there no English or Spanish?

Also what do you mean by "I din't get the matted concept". Are you saying the 1.78:1 transfer is NOT matted from the 1.33:1?

[Christian_Bütikofer]

There are defenitely no Spanish subtitles, only French ones. I guess there are English CC but I couldn't check that (it's mentioned on the cover though).

There are these two formats available: 1.78:1 and 1.33:1

At the time I didn't know what "matted" means exactly .

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

Here is an example of a matted film:



The film is shot in 1.33:1 and for theaters the film is "matted", cutting the top and bottom of the frame to fit the 1.85:1 aspect ratio, for example.
Updated, thanks!
