    He bellows about bellows.

    "They stood bellowing at each other."

    Fortunately, this never happens here (or: only virtually )

    Film/films according to Wikipedia is a movie. Full stop.

    But Wiki does write about, 'Prominent Dutch scientist Christiaan Huygens, is nowadays widely accepted as the true inventor of the magic lantern.' in 1650 which created movement by sliding 2 glass plates coated with images. So stills of film became films....

    English is my first language, so I find it difficult.

    I never real understood it, until I studied 2 years of Latin.

    Then Romance languages made sense...
