This videotape was edited together by Richard Linklater in 1991 from film countdowns and tail leaders from films submitted to the Austin Film Society in Austin, Texas from 1987 to 1990. It is Linklater's tribute to the film countdown, used by many projectionists over the years to cue one reel of film after another when switching to another reel on another projector during projection. Includes reel excerpts from films by Chantal Ackerman, Ingmar Bergman, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Cuban filmmaker Humberto Solas, Nagisa Ōshima, Monte Hellman, and Jean-Luc Godard, among many others.
