Frames of Reference
An educational physics film utilizing a fascinating set consisting of a rotating table and furniture occupying surprisingly unpredictable spots within the viewing area, Leacock’s Frames of Reference (1960), features fine cinematography by Abraham Morochnik, and funny narration by University of Toronto professors Donald Ivey and Patterson Hume, in a wonderful example of the fun a creative team of filmmakers can have with a subject other, less imaginative types might find pedestrian.

Frames of Reference is an exceptional film rated 9.5/10. It ranks among the finest in its genre and is an absolute must-watch for any film lover.
A high rating speaks for itself — this film found its audience and didn't let them down. Trust the collective taste.
A classic from 1960. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: any evening when you want quality cinema with no compromises.
