Film is not now nor has it ever been the technology of truth. It lies at a speed of 24 frames a second. Its value is not as a recorder of history, but simply as a means of communication, a means by which meaning is generated.

Whenever imploded films exist simultaneously as fiction and nonfiction they stand as evidence that history is made in Hollywood.
