Pygmalion
Pygmalion is presented in its original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.33:1. This new digital transfer was created from the 35mm composite fine-grain master (made from the original negative) and the 35mm optical soundtrack. The image was further enhanced by utilizing the MTI Digital Restoration system to remove thousands of instances of film dirt and scratches.
