Examples

“It is a glossy film with gross, opulent opticals and little comic, or any, relief; it has the jaundiced complexion of an early 60s underground film, which it is; it is ponderous, Wagnerian, and feels about five hours long (its running time is about an hour).”
“If you plan to output back to film, opticals and effects can be shot on film or generated by computer and then transferred to film.”
