Regarding SLEEP: the definitive source on Warhol's filmmaking, Callie Angell, explains that SLEEP was indeed made with the Bolex using 100- ft. rolls, on which Warhol made multiple shots (i.e. not simply letting the full 100 feet run in one take as in the screen tests), which were

Dear all, Well firstly, I apologize for posting a provocative, sketchy, response on the way out the door... Now having returned, I can take more time. Secondly, I was commenting predominantly on Myron Ort's comment: Not so much an homage to Warhol as an homage to Youtube! LOL,
