It's not a 4:3 crop, though. I looks to be a full-frame 16:9 one. That makes me think that it's an artifact of Netflix's pipeline, not the encoding house's.

- mattstocum 13y agoThe linked Wikipedia article is mistaken in stating that pan and scan applies only to 4:3. The same technique can, and often is, used to prevent letterboxing when showing a films shot at 2.35:1 on a 16:9 display.
