A guide to 35mm features released in the 1.37:1 aspect ratio after 1953, the year widescreen formats became the industry standard in Hollywood.
Soft-matted widescreen is easily mistaken for full-frame 1.37 - don't be fooled!
Note on films from the 1950s
Rules of thumb
- With very few exceptions, Japanese films made before the late 1970s are either 1.37 or 'scope
- Films originally released for TV exhibition or on 16mm are more likely than others to be natively 1.37
Filmmakers to watch out for
Films directed by these filmmakers are notably likely to be 1.37:
- Jean-Luc Godard
- Eric Rohmer
