Does that mean that these would look like on a Cinemascope screen?

Creating a fontset that uses for different Unicode ranges different (sized) 
fonts should be the way. Like that X resource maybe:

        (create-fontset-from-fontset-spec
          "-apple-monaco-medium-r-normal--9-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-monaco,
          ascii:-apple-monaco-medium-r-normal--9-90-75-75-m-90-mac-roman,
        
latin-iso8859-15:-apple-monaco-medium-r-normal--9-90-75-75-m-90-mac-roman,
        
latin-iso8859-1:-apple-monaco-medium-r-normal--9-90-75-75-m-90-mac-roman")
        
        (set-frame-font "fontset-monaco")
        
        (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist
         '(font . "fontset-monaco"))

Maybe you can use fontconfig names like <font name>-9...
