Red Carpet Double Feature

OR
1.72:1 (cropped and zoomed)
(How it plays if my player is not switched to "16:9 full". On a 16:9 display, picture is full height but not full width, and is slightly off centre horizontally with a slight black bar on the left and a larger black bar on the right.)

A couple of things:

1. It might be worth noting that both movies are on the same disc.

2. It also might be worth noting that, at least on some systems, for both movies the player has to be set to "16:9 full" (with the TV set to "4:3") in order to view them in 1.33:1. Otherwise they are displayed zoomed, with the top and bottom cropped off. Such releases seem to be rare, but other similar ones do exist. The only ones I know of are:

Ilsa, the Tigress of Siberia DVD

and

(Note that there are some errors on these Silent Night, Deadly Night pages, but I will submit corrections in a separate thread.)

I've seen it on the Warner Chaplin DVDs as well, which was quite annoying. Updated again
