The rarely-shown 1.37:1 version of Full Metal Jacket is back on HBO Max. Please understand there is only one way to re-experience this 1987 war classic, and that's via the HD boxy version. It is absolutely the most visually pleasing version anyone will ever see. Perfectly framed. The head room is transporting. Nothing is cleavered or trimmed. Exactly the way Kubrick wanted it.
