Author Topic: Brother to Brother (2004) Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 12-07-2004 10:07 AM                    "Brother to Brother" Wolfe Releasing 5 reels 1.66-within-1.85 / SR This means an image height appropriate for 1.85 projection but image is less than full width. Proper theatres (common height projection) should run with 1.85 lenses & plates but bring side masking in to 1.66. Improper theatres...you're on your own...you just won't fill your screen.  |  IP: Logged John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 12-07-2004 01:21 PM                        Steve: Does the top and bottom of the frame have a consistent opaque "hard matte", in addition to the "pillar boxing"?  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 12-07-2004 02:42 PM                    Yes, to .446 or slightly over. I didn't have the opportunity for a test ahead of the screening so I held it in register with 35PA/RP40 (using the splicer pins for registration) and looked at it closely under magnification noting where the image ended horizontally in comparision with the test pattern. Then running the loop I ran the masking in to the same point which turned out to be about the same as the setting I use for "real" 1.66. It was fine that way.
