Up In Smoke (1978)
aka: Cheech and Chong's Up in Smoke
5 reels
91 minutes
mono
Paramount Pictures
Kodak 2383 film stock
Correct me if I'm wrong, but this film was originally scope 2.35. The print we got was a 1.33 TV print. The cans were clearly labeled "Pan-Scanned" and "Formatted for TV" and the image was clearly not anamorphic. Strangely enough, it was not edited for television (it is an R-rated film). Even stranger, the print was struck in 2002. I told our programmer about this and he told me this was the only print he could get. We screened it in Academy and it looked ok, but it would really look awful if cropped to 1.85.

You are correct the original was scope.
