Which DVD to buy?

I really want to buy this movie on DVD, but I'm not sure what version to get. I like watching movies in their original aspect ratio, which IMDb lists as being 1.85:1 for The Pajama Game. But on Amazon, the two versions of the movie that I can find are both listed as having an aspect ratio of 1.33:1, meaning the sides would be cropped off. Is there a widescreen version available? If so, which one?

But it is not. Both sides have a 1: 1.33 frame size. There exists no widescreen version.

You're mistaken, I have a commercial DVD with the anamorphic widescreen version on one side and the pan & scan on the other.

Absolutely. Watching a 1.78 WS DVD right now.
