Those measurements for an original Amadeus are correct, give or take 1/8" to 1/4" on the WIDTH and LENGTH of the poster. I owned the pre-Oscar version of Amadeus for years. Orion and Tri-Star routinely pulled the same routine during the late 1980s, experimenting with poster sizes. 1989's "Glory" is another example of a poster with dimensions smaller than 27 x 40 or 27 x 41. Doug Taylor will likely have the same info because "Amadeus" won the Oscar for Best Picture in 1984 and owns almost every one-sheet in his famous "Best Picture" poster collection. -d.
