> Film was also sold by the foot. You didn't by film by 15 minutes. You bought film by 1000' rolls (35mm).

But that just makes sense doesn't it? It's only 15 minutes' worth if you run it at 1000'/15m.

Developing your film was also charged by the foot. The soup didn't care about your framerate. Just how much was need to process.
