Hard mattes were really unheard of, with the exception of VistaVision prints, until about the late '50s. Ironically, Universal was one of the first studios to employ this. Universal was one of the first studios to go wide-screen and one to pick the narrowest ratio-- 2-1. I'm watching CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON matted at 2-1 right now and it's quite obvious that the film was shot for this ratio.

For the DVD of ICFOS, the soundtrack was off of a 35mm stereo mag recording, so using the optical soundtrack was not necessary.
