The correct aspect ratio for a film shot in Superpanorama 70 is 2,2:1 – not to be confused with Ultra Panavision 70, which yields an aspect ratio of 2,76:1, as used by Tarantino for The Hateful Eight. I’ve watched two versions of Pampa salvaje, running 94 respectively 110 minutes, and in both the opening credits appear in the proper aspect ratio. Then the frame is vertically enlarged, resulting in missing image-information left and right.
Please note that those images were – for obvious reasons – not taken from the upcoming DVD/BD/4K UHD BD release but from an MKV file. Will the Busch Media Group discs present the film in its correct aspect ratio? Will they have English audio? And how long will they run? Pressing questions upon pressing questions.
