I have fond memories of this film. I remember seeing it the first time with my parents and enjoying it so much, my grandmother then took me to see it again a few days later. I was probably about 8 or 9 at the time.
Run! Run in the corridor!

Thanks for raising the aspect ratio issue.

I rather think that, when I posed the question (over three years ago!), the IMDb didn't mention 1.37:1 but just said 35mm.
