A film, also called a movie, motion picture, theatrical film, or photoplay, is a series of still images that, when shown on a screen, create the illusion of moving images. (See the glossary of motion picture terms.)
Television

One of the few good things about modern times: If you die horribly on television, you will not have died in vain. You will have entertained us.
