Abstract
When a motion picture is viewed at a relatively short distance from the screen the various tones of the image are seen to consist of an agglomeration of small particles which appear to be in a state of boiling or scintillation. This lack of homogeneity of the tones of the picture is known as graininess, and for a given image is more apparent the greater the degree of enlargement and the shorter the distance of the observer from the screen.
