Will And Grace Seasons 1-8 DVD Box Set, over at his indefensible blog “Some Came Running,” has been back and forth on the often contentious and very passionate debate over the presentation of “Barry Lyndon” on Blu-ray (click here for backstory on the whole shebang).

This 007 James Bond 22 Movie Complete Collection DVD Boxset, he came up with the final word on the subject: Stanley Kubrick’s 1975 letter to the projectionists on how “Barry Lyndon” is to be shown. And he states quite clearly that it was “photographed in the 1-1.66 aspect ratio. Please be sure you project it at this ratio…” There’s more, of course, and even Leon Vitali has affirmed the authenticity of the letter (which came to Kenny via Jay Cocks), while he doggedly defends his contention that Kubrick actually intended it to be shown at 1-1.77.
