Cliff,
If you are truly watching a Blu-Ray disk of Wizard of Oz, it is indeed a
16:9 image, as your first screen captures showed. The video is simply
pillarboxed. There is no such thing as a 4:3 HD Blu-Ray.
If your output is set to 4:3 Pan & Scan, it should fill the 4:3 monitor with
the center portion of the video, effectively throwing away the pillar boxing
of the Blu-Ray version of The Wiz.
If both of your Blu-Ray players are not doing this, that's another matter.
Do you happen to have both an HDMI cable and an NTSC cable connected to your
Blu-Ray player simultaneously? If so, then the HDMI may be overriding the
4:3 Pan & Scan setting with an implied 16:9 setting.

Cliff,
What specific make and model Blu-Ray are you using? The instructions for
the Philips BDP-7200 Blu-Ray player specifically shows a "4:3 pan and
scan"
NTSC mode, which is what I always set on my DVD players when connected to
a
4:3 television.
Manual:
http://www.p4c.philips.com/files/b/bdp7200_f7/bdp7200_f7_dfu_aen.pdf
Read Page 35.

None of the examples on page 35 shows a 1.33:1 4:3 film being played, only
16:9.
This is the problem I think. 1.33:1 4:3 is being ignored by Blu-ray.
