Maybe these words will be useful:
  • film — a thin layer or coating: a film of grease on a plate.
  • film badge — a badgelike device that, when processed, indicates whether a dose of radiation has been received: worn by workers subject to radiation exposure.
  • film clip — a strip of motion-picture film, especially an excerpt from a longer film or one inserted as part of another presentation, as of a telecast or full-length motion picture.
  • film colour — a misty appearance produced when no lines or edges are present in the visual field
  • film gate — (in motion-picture cameras and projectors) a mechanism that holds the film flat in the focal plane of the lens during exposure or projection.
  • film at 11 — (jargon)   (MIT, in parody of US TV newscasters) 1. Used in conversation to announce ordinary events, with a sarcastic implication that these events are earth-shattering. "ITS crashes; film at 11." "Bug found in scheduler; film at 11." 2. Also widely used outside MIT to indicate that additional information will be available at some future time, *without* the implication of anything particularly ordinary about the referenced event. For example, "The mail file server died this morning; we found garbage all over the root directory. Film at 11." would indicate that a major failure had occurred but that the people working on it have no additional information about it as yet; use of the phrase in this way suggests gently that the problem is liable to be fixed more quickly if the people doing the fixing can spend time doing the fixing rather than responding to questions, the answers to which will appear on the normal "11:00 news", if people will just be patient.
  • film library — a collection of films, motion pictures, videodiscs, videocassettes, and any other materials stored on film.
