Nagra-brand tape recorders were the de-facto standard sound recording systems for motion picture and single-camera television production from the 1960s until the 1990s. Their physical appearance, with the single transport selector and large reel-to-reel tape deck are still the stereotypical image most people have of a professional tape recorder. A Nagra IV-S recorder prominently appears in the 1981 movie Diva, which features an opera fan making bootleg tapes of his favorite opera singer; another Nagra (a Nagra III) features prominently in the 1981 John Travolta film Blow Out about a freelance sound effects engineer. Another Nagra may be seen in the Beatles' movie Help!. The word "nagra" comes from Stefan Kudelski's mother tongue Polish word "nagrac" and stands for "to record" or from the Polish phrase "to nagra", which stands for "it will record".
