I Download Portable: Titanic1997openmatte1080pblura

Here is the critical fact you need to know: There is no official "Open Matte" version of Titanic on commercial Blu-ray.

The official Titanic Blu-ray (released by Paramount and Fox) is only available in the theatrical 2.39:1 aspect ratio (or 1.78:1 for the 3D version, which is a different "cropped" conversion, not true Open Matte).

What you are searching for (titanic1997openmatte1080pblura) is a fan-made hybrid. Someone took the high-definition 1080p video from the Blu-ray and combined it with the Open Matte framing from an older HDTV broadcast or DVD source. This is a "franken-version."

This file does not exist on any legal store. You cannot buy it on Amazon, iTunes, or Vudu. It is exclusively a fan restoration project shared through unofficial channels.

For the 25th anniversary, James Cameron personally supervised a new 4K HDR/Dolby Vision transfer. While it is still in the 2.39:1 theatrical ratio, the color grading has been dramatically improved. It is currently the best available version of the film. It includes Dolby Atmos sound.

Most modern movies are filmed on 35mm film, which captures a nearly square image. However, in theaters, the movie is masked (cropped) to a widescreen rectangular shape (usually 2.39:1 or 1.85:1).

"Open Matte" means the transfer was taken from the full film frame without the cropping.

The term Open Matte refers to a version of a film where the studio does not crop the top and bottom of the Super 35mm frame to fit a widescreen cinema scope. Instead, they "open" the matte (the black bars) to reveal more picture information.

For Titanic, an Open Matte version exists primarily in two places:

Why do collectors want this? In the widescreen Blu-ray, when Jack draws Rose on the couch, you see her face and his hands. In the Open Matte version, you see the entire ceiling of the stateroom, Rose’s bare foot resting on the chair, and the full prop lamp above them. During the sinking, you see more water at the bottom and more falling debris at the top. For purists, the Open Matte offers 30% more vertical image. In the search string, this is the openmatte flag.
