Anyone know if The original film 'Let the Right One In' DVD is anamorphic?

After picking up the remake today I am interested in getting a copy of the original Swedish film the remake was based on, But want to know if the SD DVD is indeed anamorphic. Does anyone have a copy and can confirm this or not?
Thanks-

The Magnet DVD is indeed anamorphic, but be wary - pick up the dvd that says "theatrical subtitles" on the back. If it doesn't say "theatrical", it uses subtitles far inferior to what were read in theatres, stripped of nuance and omitting important details.

Much agreed. I saw multiple screenshots of the bad subtitles and they are very, very different than what the people are actually saying. The theatrical subtitles are far more accurate, not to mention make much more sense.

Except it's cheaper at Amazon.

This has been covered to death in the existing thread on this DVD, but the corrected DVD has been in the pipeline for a long time, and it's what Amazon has been shipping for months, if not years.
