One of Kubrick's more annoying traits is that he wanted full-screen for his videos/DVDs, with the exception of "2001" and "Barry Lyndon", I believe.

Well his 1950s films (Killer's Kiss, The Killing, Paths of Glory) were made in 1:37 (just about TV frame). Lolita and Dr. Strangelove were 1:66 which is just teensy bit of letterboxing.

The letterbox of Strangelove is also far superior, though hard to find on tv.
