Occurs to me that movie frames also have spatial frequency, a fact alluded to somewhat vaguely, and somewhat irrelevantly, in the third paragraph. And they have color distribution. One could characterize a movie by a trajectory jumping around a multidimensional phase space of various axes. What could we learn about filmmaking, or even about human perception and storytelling, from analyzing such things?
It's easier post-DVD, when movies have already been converted into a big pile of numbers.
