Titanic was originally released in theaters with a widescreen aspect ratio of 2.35:1 or 2.39:1. This means the top and bottom of the captured frame were intentionally cropped out (matted) to create a highly cinematic, ultra-wide view.

Titanic (1997) remains a towering achievement in cinema. Whether you prefer the cinematic, director-approved widescreen composition or the immersive, detail-oriented experience of the , the story of Jack and Rose, combined with the epic recreation of the doomed vessel, is undeniable.
You want to experience the film exactly how James Cameron intended theatre audiences to see it in 1997, preserving a traditional cinematic composition.
Scammers often take a widesource, add fake black bars, then remove them incorrectly. True open matte should show extra picture , not just a stretched image. Compare: If the Open Matte version looks exactly the
When Cameron supervised the 4K and 3D restoration of Titanic , he specifically opened the matte to a 1.78:1 aspect ratio for the 3D theatrical and 3D Blu-ray versions. He felt the taller frame offered a more immersive experience for 3D depth perception.
This version is primarily sought after because it offers a more "immersive" home viewing experience.

The Open Matte copies circulating online originated from:

“There are still so many places for Bourdain to visit in Vietnam, so many more dishes for him to try, so many more episodes for him to make.”
That is the same thought and reason why I haven’t gone back to any episode or short clips of him, which appear in my YT feeds every now and then.
Hi Giang,
Yes, I know what you mean, and I know many other Bourdain fans who feel the same.

I sometimes wonder why people often acknowledge people’s death day (religious reasons aside)? Generally speaking that’s the worst day of a persons life and the saddest day for their loved ones and admirers.
With that in mind Anthony’s birthday is coming up on June 25 (1956), the day this intrepid traveller and lover of people was born!
Hi S Holmes,
Yes, it’s because in Vietnam ‘death days’ are commonly celebrated. Hence, I’ve chosen to remember Bourdain on his ‘death day’ in the context of his love of Vietnam.

Many Americans of a certain age only saw Vietnam in context with the American War. That view persisted in American culture and continued into the next generation. Bourdain was the first to see Vietnam as a unique country. I don’t think he ever mentioned the war in his programs.
Hi Paul,
Yes, I know what you mean, and in many ways (most ways, in fact), I agree that Bourdain painted Vietnam in a different context to what many Americans were most familiar with – that being war. However, he could never let the war go from his Vietnam episodes: Bourdain references the war – either directly or through cultural references, such as movies – in most of his Vietnam shows. This is totally understandable, but I personally looked forward to an episode that left the war out completely, thus focusing only on present-day Vietnam.
Best,
Tom
I’ll have to re-watch some of the episodes. I guess it was just my first impression that Bourdain dealt with Vietnam on its own merits as a young country with an ancient past and complex culture.
Thank you for your close and heartfelt reading of Bourdain’s odysseys to Vietnam.
I have watched the “Hanoi” episode 5 times with deepening appreciation and sentiment; it is my favorite of what I’ve seen of his work.
The episode is an apostrophe to gain — Vietnam’s as it heals from its history and ascends the world stage toward its future — and a eulogy to the Obama and Bourdain era, where sincerity and civility, for a short time, were given a stage.
“Is it going to be all right?”
While Obama and Bourdain were tour guides, we could believe it would.
Hi Jeff,
Yes, I agree, it’s a very poignant episode – it was at the time, but even more so now, with the knowledge of what was about to happen: to Bourdain, to American politics, to the World.
Best,
Tom
This is amazing Tom, just found ur blog after following you quite sometime in twitter. Anthony is one of my idol esp for Vietnam. Keep up the good work as always and thanks.
Thank you for the kind words!
Great to hear you admire Bourdain too. I hope you enjoy watching/re-watching these episodes.
Best,
Tom
Thank you for a great article as always!
It made me miss my hometown even more.
Thank you, Bao Tran 🙂
Thanks, Tom, for a moving and informative article that has me regretting that I didn’t enjoy Bourdain’s work when he was with us. He was a one-off for sure and we are all poorer for his absence.
Thanks, John.
This is wonderful, Tom.
A great tribute to Bourdain and Vietnamese food.
I never saw his programmes but have read some of his books which i greatly enjoyed.
Thanks
Vicki
Thanks, Vicki.
Yes, I enjoy his writing style too. I hope you get a chance to watch some of his TV shows sometime too.

Man, great review.
I didn’t know Tony because I’m Spanish and I was not interested about him. I think I first know about him when I came to Vietnam.
I have the feeling that Vietnam is changing very fast, but mostly I don’t see it as an inconvenient but something good. We will see how things evolve in the future.
I agree with Obama, eventually everything will be fine. The virus will be over and we will continue eating food with family and friends, and be able to travel!
I miss Spain and Thailand!
Thanks, Javier.
Yes, I hope so too.
Best,
Tom
