The big black border is called letterboxing and it allows you to watch the widescreen movie on your 4:3 DAR TV. If you trying doing any resizing, you are going to lose significant parts of the movie as you won't be able to do your own pan and scan conversion.

Think about it... The answer is obviously NO. It's like asking if you could turn a rectangle into a square and have it still look like a rectangle...

Again, if you crop the image, you are going to end up loosing important stuff on the edges. In any case, you can't edit an MPEG file without re-encoding it and that will lead to even further loss of quality.
