Why are all old films always just a *little* too fast?

Has anyone else noticed this? It feels like any old film from the past, everyone is walking just a little too quick, things are moving just a bit too fast. Is there a reason for this?

It’s called the redshift effect. The further back in time a film originated, the faster it appears when you’re viewing it for playback today. It’s simple physics.
