Film in 3:2 opengate for a 1.5:1 aspect ratio. Desqueeze the footage in your video editor by 1.55x and get a 2.325:1 aspect ratio.
3:2 = 3/2:2/2 = 1.5:1
16:9 = 16/9:9/9 = 1.778:1
This combo = 2.325:1
21:9 = 21/9:9/9 = 2.333:1
Cinemascope = 2.35:1
The human eye won't distinguish between this combo and 21:9 modern ultrawide. With judicious trimming off the top or bottom of the frame you can get true Cinemascope, although it's likely near enough without the hassle.
