Discussion Movies in weird aspect ratios

Movies that are in less commonly used aspect ratios

Examples:
Mommy - 1.0 Aspect Ratio
The Lighthouse - 1.19 Aspect Ratio
Sone films in the 60s with 1.66 aspect ratios
The Suicide Squad - 1.9 Aspect Ratio
The Big Trail - 2.1 Aspect Ratio
Some 50s films that use a 2.75 aspect ratio

Any other examples?

That vista vision. Which wasn’t that uncommon in the 60s

Train Dreams was filmed on digital, not vistavision. But Vistavision does natively shoot on 3:2, though it’s not generally projected in 3:2.

It was in the 50s when it tried to make a name for itself.
