Film
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.)
Wikipedia
Film
A film is a boat which is always on the point of sinking - it always tends to break up as you go along and drag you under with it.
Francois Truffaut interview in Peter Graham's The New Wave (1968).

Film
Photography is truth. The cinema is truth twenty-four times per second.
Jean-Luc Godard, Le Petit Soldat (film) (direction and screenplay, 1960)
Wikiquote
Film
… a pastime for helots, a diversion for uneducated, wretched, worn-out creatures who are consumed by their worries, … a spectacle which requires no concentration and presupposes no intelligence,… which kindles no light in the heart and awakens no hope other than the ridiculous one of someday becoming a ‘star’ in Los Angeles.
Georges Duhamel, describing cinema, Scènes de la vie future (1930), p. 58.

The aftermath of a tsunami
A research background in earthquake engineering seems at first sight like an unusual fit with studying tsunamis. But on her return from Sri Lanka in the wake of the 2004 tsunami, Professor Tiziana Rossetto discovered that very little research had been done into the effects of tsunamis on coastal infrastructure and she wanted to find out more. She will be presenting this research to the public at the TEDx Brussels event on 1 December.
