reelIn cinema, a plastic or metal spool used for winding and storing film. As the size of reels became standardized, the word came to refer to the running time of the film: a standard 35-mm reel held 313 m/900 ft of film, which runs for ten minutes when projected at 24 frames per second, so a two-reeler was a film lasting 20 minutes. Multi-reel films became popular during the 1910s and became known as feature films. Today's projectors hold longer reels of 2,000-3,000 ft. reel
