Language
Film is considered to have its own language.

Criticism

Film criticism is the analysis and evaluation of films. In general these Works can be divided into two categories: academic criticism by film scholars and journalistic film criticism  that appears regulary in newspaper and other media.

Montage

Montage is the technique  by which separate pieces of film are  selected, edited, and then pieced together to make a new selection of film.  A scene could show a man going into a battle, with flashbacks  to his youth and to his home-life and with added special effects, placed into the film after filming is complete. As these were all filmed separately, and perhaps with different actors, the final version is called a montage.      

Industry


The making and showing  of motion pictures became  a source of profit almost as soon as the process was invente.
The Oberammergau Passsion Play of 1898 was the first commercial  motion picture ever produced.
Other pictures soon followed, and motion pictures became a separate industry that overshadowed the vaudeville world. Dedicated  theathers  and companies formed specifically to produce  and distribute film, while motion picture actors became major celebrities and  commanded huge fees for their performances. By 1917 Charlie Chaplin had a contract  that called for an annual    salary of one million dollars.

In the United States today, much of the film industry is centered  around  Hollywood, California.
Other regional centers exist in many parts of the world, such as Mumbai-centered Bollywood and the Indian film industry's  Hindi cinema which produces the largest number of films in the world.  Profit is a key force in the industry, due to the costly and risky nature of filmmaking; many films have large cost overruns.
The Academy Awards( also known  as "the Oscars") are the most prominent film awards in the United States, providing recognition each year to films, ostensibly  based on their artistic merits.

History

Preceding film in origin by thousand of years, early plays and dances had elements common to film: scripts, sets, costumes, production, direction, actors, audiences, storyboards, and scores.
Around the turn 20th century, films started stringing several scenes together to tell a story.
In the 1920s, the development of electronic sound recording technologies made it practical to incorporate a soundtrack of speech, music and sound effects synchronized with the action on the screen. 
In the early 1950s, the proliferation of black-and-white television started seriously depressing North American theater attendance. In an attempt to lure audiences back into theaters, bigger screens were installed, widescreen processes, polarized 3D projection and stereophonic sound were introduced, and more films were made in color, which soon became the rule rather than the exception.
