Wow, didn't see this in time.
No, this was the showing of 8/5, the second showing in the festival.
I do not know if the king attended, but the king is not young, no.
The concept of smilebox was explained in a speech by the guys that did the mastering.
It allows the impression of a "curved" e.g. 180degree screen as present in the original showing (they customized the Colosseum Cinema in Oslo for this movie, and if I remember correctly it showed there for nine months straight)
This effect will show as smilebox on a normal screen, while it will show correctly on a self-built 180 degree screen, thus allowing the original screening.
I am unsure now about the version they showed, it has been some time.
"How wide was the screen", it was a flat non curved cinema screen of normal proportions for modern cinemas. I do not know more exact details for that.
