Sometimes they pitch correct, sometimes not. (You can read more here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/576i ) It's annoying as hell really, I wish they wouldn't do it.
Yes, I have heard of this, But usually only for BroadCast. Movies release on DVD or Bluray have different technique's like adding an extra frame, or for NTSC 3:2 pull-down. But, thats another can or worms.
There would be no idea if the runtime on IMDb was correct for sped-up film or true frame-rate.
It' s not just for broadcast, I have a PAL section of my DVD library that says otherwise
