The Region 4 release has not been given the THX digital remastering treatment. The Region 1 release also appears to be at an aspect ratio of 2.55:1, but there is conflicting information as to the original aspect ratio and whether it is 2.35:1 or 2.55:1. Two reliable sources provide the conflicting information. In any case, both do not provide 16x9 enhancement which is very disappointing for a movie such as this. I am not sure that the remastering would provide that much of an improvement to the Region 4 release, and so would still recommend the Region 4 version.
