We present a rigorous derivation of the canonical representation of a class of constitutive functions for liquid crystal films which has been widely used in various special forms in the fields of emulsion chemistry and cell-membrane biology. The representation yields the largest class of functions compatible with an appropriate definition of fluidity. The method used also furnishes established representation formulas in the classical theories of capillarity and three-dimensional compressible fluids.
