They would produce a special print so it could be projected on a curved Cinerama screen without too much distortion. Elsewhere, it would have been shown in normal 70mm "flat" prints and 35mm Scope prints. 2001 was another film where this was done.
There were only two dramatic features shot in the three-camera Cinerama process, How the West Was Won and The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm.
