for those curious, yes the film was completely remastered and the finest print to date (essentially if this did have a dvd release this is prob the print they would have been using).
However it looked matted (will have to confirm it) and if matted it looked slightly overmatted to me (1:85:1). Looks more like the film should have had a 1:77 or 1:75 ratio, not a 1:85:1
