Whatever it is, its AR is 1.5:1 -- uncommon to say the least -- assuming that it's an actual screen shot ...

Gotta be State of Grace. Best scene of the movie.

True enough, I forgot about that. Not being familiar with those at all, do they usually show up on DVD at that 1.5:1 or are they cropped to 16x9?

I don't think the black at the top and bottom are wide enough to get the ratio down to 1.66:1 for this picture though. Or the DVD may not be framed to match a usual (non-IMAX) theatrical AR ...

I think we should move along, and assume that State of Grace is correct.

My bad... I was trying to find something less iconic from there, but they all are that way...

No tricks, still wrong decade. I have to go to class now, so I really hope someone can guess it.
