Latham Loop

 What is the Latham loop? How did it change cinema?

The Latham loop was a patented invention, that changed the way film went through the camera/projector. In order to keep the film from tearing, there would be some loose film before the film was pulled through so that it wouldn't tear. This changed cinema because now longer films could be shot, and the film wouldn't get ruined.
