I wonder why films can get away with 48 Hz, but CRTs are annoying at 70 Hz?

I think it has something to do with motion blur.  A CCD takes very
little exposure for a frame, while film, I think, has a longer
exposure period.  So you get more motion blur with film than with a
CCD.  Also, there may be something to the way the TV scans the image,
while the film projector flashes it all at once.  Note that I could be
totally full of crap here, so you may want to look elsewhere.  There
are people who know the answer to this question.
