Che: Parts One and Two aspect ratio

[Samuel_Scott]

Anyone know why Steven Soderbergh opted for 2.40:1 for the first half, and 1.85:1 for the second half?

You have to ask him that personally to know for sure. Or, it's most likely, the second part wasn't matted, like the first one.

Thanks

Reviews for UK releases of both will be up very shortly. Really enjoyed both parts. Soderbergh is so hit or miss for me, but these are a hit.

Soderbergh has like a split personality when he directs. Some of his films are amazing but then the next may be like worst thing ever.
