Searchlight Pictures/Trailer Variations

These are the logo variations seen on trailer throughout the years by Searchlight Pictures (earlier as Fox Searchlight Pictures), with more to be added overtime.

Fox Searchlight Pictures
Stealing Beauty (1996): The 1996 logo is pillarboxed due to the logo not being well optimized for 2.35:1 or wider aspect ratios.

Smilla's Sense of Snow (1997): The 1996 logo is heavily cropped and is in a colder color tempature. Like on Stealing Beauty, this version is not well optimized for ratios wider than 1.85:1.

Cousin Bette (1998): Same as the Love and Other Catastrophes variant, but it is zoomed out way further than usual.

Reason: the logo cuts off on the bottom and "floats", a la the 1981 20th Century Fox logo on the TV spot for Short Time.
