Abstract
An argument is presented for recommended standard screen-image proportions based upon the dimensions and brightness that will provide most comfortable viewing conditions at the center of the theater seating space. It proposes that such compromise would tend toward best average viewing conditions and, therefore, least eye-strain and most enjoyment for the audience as a whole.
