From a practical viewpoint the Grandeur offers many practical advantages over the 35 millimeter. The director can film his spectacular scenes and dancing numbers with fewer cuts and no closeups. The cameraman has greater scope in his composition and much advantage in his lighting. Back lighting under the 35 millimeter conditions since sound came changed the proportions of the frame has been difficult.
However, the Grandeur and Cinematographer's task is lightened inasmuch as the sets need not be so high, and back lighting at

effective and natural angles is possible. Direction of expansive scenes is simplified, for the proportions of the 70 millimeter frame, 22J/2 mm. x 48 mm. are such as to give ample scope for all movements with adequately large figures. Dance scenes need not be followed, for there is plenty of room for them in normal long shots. Composition with this film does not present the difficulties of 35 millimeter. The angular field of view of the various lenses are different, naturally. The comparisons here shown of angles included by representative lenses on standard film with a frame of 19 mm. x 25 mm. (standard), and Grandeur with its 22J/? mm. x 48 mm. frame are interesting.
