Question for DVD experts

My copies of both "Jean de Florette" and "Manon of the Spring" are in 2:35 x 1 but are not anamorphic. Yet when I try to play yhem in my TV's "Zoom" mode (which I use for non-anamorphic wide screen films) the picture is the correct aspect ratio but I can't see the subtitles. In order to see them I have to use the "Full" setting which makes the aspect ratio something like 3 x 1. Very annoying and I now wish I had saved my laserdisc box. Of the 1500+ movies I own this is the only one with this problem. Does anyone know what is going on here? Thanks.
