best movies


A film is a motion picture, also often called a movie (originally slang for moving picture). Films, collectively, are often called cinema. Motion pictures are an art form, a popular form of entertainment, and a business.Download free movie from rapidshare ,megaupload,digzip,and hotfile,and if you like it by original.

The word film also often refers to photographic film used to make still photographs, or to the flexible strip of plastic covered in a light-sensitive silver halide solution, also called filmstock, on which motion pictures have historically been made.
Film consists of a transparent plastic coated with an emulsion containing light-sensitive chemicals. Celluloid was the first type of film used to record motion pictures, but due to its flammability was eventually replaced by safer formats.

Originally moving picture film was shot at various speeds using hand-cranked cameras; then the speed for mechanized cameras and projectors was standardized at 16 frames per second, which was faster than much existing hand-cranked footage. A new standard speed, 24 frames per second, came with the introduction of sound. Improvements since the late 1800s include the mechanization of cameras, allowing them to record at a consistent speed, the invention of more sophisticated filmstocks and lenses, allowing directors to film in increasingly dim conditions, and the development of synchronized sound, allowing sound to be recorded at exactly the same speed as its corresponding video.

As a medium, film is not limited to motion pictures, since the technology developed as the basis for photography. It can be used to present a progressive sequence of still images in the form of a slideshow. Film has also been incorporated into multimedia presentations. However, film also creates problems in terms of preservation and storage, and the motion picture industry is exploring digital alternatives to film.
