The original VHS and laserdisc release of this movie was in letterbox, prompting calls to RCA/Columbia to find out if there was a printing problem. To make matters worse, it was not letterboxed in the film's original aspect ratio of 2.35:1, but letterboxed AND panned-and-scanned into a 1.66:1 frame. Viewers who liked 'full frame' movies had to put up with black bars at the top and bottom of the screen, and those who want films in their original aspect ratio had to deal with a picture that was cropped on the sides and panned-and-scanned in some shots. The DVD release in 1999 was the first time the film was presented in its original 2.35:1 aspect ratio on home video.
