Release Notes on Restoration
Cleo from 5 to 7
Cléo from 5 to 7 is presented in its original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.66:1. On standard 4:3 televisions the image will appear letterboxed. On standard and widescreen televisions, black bars may also be visible on the left and right to maintain the proper screen format. Supervised and approved by director Agnes Varda, this new digital transfer was created from a 35mm interpositive made from the original camera negative. Thousands of instances of dirt, debris, and scratches were removed using the MTI Digital Restoration System. To maintain optimal image quality through the compression process, the picture on this dual-layer DVD-9 was encoded at the highest possible bit rate for the quantity of material included.
The soundtrack was master at 24-bit from the optical soundtrack, and audio restoration tools were used to reduce clicks, pops, hiss, and crackle. The Dolby Digital 1.0 signal will be directed to the center on surround sound systems, but some viewers may prefer to switch to two-channel playback for a wider dispersal of the mono sound.
