This site is devoted to the many different types of widescreen processes that have proliferated practically from when film production first began. The style is occasionally irreverent, but the information is sound and there are a vast number of practical examples, all liberally illustrated with screen grabs from video versions and the original frames. There are also sections devoted to the history of colour film, the development of sound, film posters and much more.
