This is awesome!! Thanks for uploading!!

The sequence where Frank meets in the room with his dealer around the 36:00 point, where the dealer shoots him up, is one of of the most intense and incredible moments of cinema I've ever seen. The way Preminger goes in on the close up of Franks eyes as the drug hits him is one of the best shots in cinema history. Unbelievable this movie was made when it was!

It looks someone did the upload wrong. The movie is not 16x9, but 1.33:1.

People are not so fat...

Please re upload properly so we can enjoy the movie in its proper dimensions, or just fix the aspect ratio by using the proper you tube tags:

Tag:

yt:stretch=4:3

(Fixes 720x480 content that is the wrong aspect ratio by scaling to 4:3)
