If this is not a good place to ask this, forgive me - I could not find a good movie film forum.
Can anyone direct me to a web-site of a book or something that will enlighten me as to how movie film is processed (developed). I am talking about the 35mm film that is used to shoot movies. I can hardly imagine a film maker exposing thousands of feet of film and then running it through developer in the dark. However, I can imagine a machine that would pull the reel through a developer bath at a specific speed and then the fixer and so on. I would like to get some technical information about this.
