  1. moving-picture show

    A moving-picture show, also known as a film or movie, is a series of still images that, when shown on a screen, create the illusion of moving images. This is usually due to the phenomenon of persistence of vision, and the process of creating such shows involves capturing photographic images with cameras, or by creating images using animation techniques or visual effects. These images are then displayed in quick succession, typically at a rate of 24, 25, 30, or 60 frames per second, to create the illusion of motion. The audio component, which could include dialogues, background music, and sound effects, is also an integral part of a moving-picture show.
