Sometimes I have head the expression that "It was shown in ultra-rapid".
In reality it was *slow-motion*. I believe that there have been film
cameras with a setting marked "ultra-rapid" menaing that they captured
more than the normal number of frames per second.
When shown on a projector at normal speed a true slow-motion effect is
obtained.
Myself, I use interlaced DV by de-interlacing it and thus obtaining 50
pictures per second. (PAL)
Often (depending on lighting, colors of the moving obejcts and other
things) the results are quite good giving a true "poor man's slo-mo".
It would be interesting to hear from someone reading this, seeing the
film with this discussion in mind, and reporting back what they saw!
The scene in questing is right at the beginning.
