- This release has quite a huge grain structure which is normal since 2-perf (2.35) film stock was used to shoot this 1.85 movie. Basically, the left and right side of the exposed film was discarded in order to get an aspect ratio of 1.85, then the film was scalled by about 28% in order to fill the height of the destination resolution which in this case is 1080p.
