Welcome to Film is the Word

Welcome to "Film is the Word", a site dedicated to arguably the greatest profession on the planet. Probably no other art form in the world influences the thoughts and perceptions of people as greatly as motion pictures. And the person calling the shots is that crazy fellow behind the camera - the director. There are films that have changed the way the world thinks, there are pictures that have toppled governments and there are documentaries that have brought in new legislations and laws. All of us love films but a few among us take this noncahlant love a little further and try to eke out a living in this medium - not for the love of the money but for the love of the game. So sit back, enjoy and go through some of the most awe inspiring career stories of brilliant filmmakers who chose to take that tough call. If this website inspires even a fraction of wannabe fimmakers to branch out of their present day rigmaroles, it's objective would have been achieved. And to those who are already about to embark on that most beautiful of journeys...WE SALUTE YOU.
