Best Answer

George Eastman invented film in the sense that he invented photographic film that replaced chemically coated glass or metal plates in the making of still photographs.

Thomas Alva Edison invented the movie by working with Eastman to make photographic film suitable for motion pictures, and then by developing the process for photographing staged stories and presenting the results in Nickelodeons..

For cameras- credit is generally given to George Eastman of Eastman-Kodak. however Daguerrotype and other plate processes antdate him, as did the Glass-negative plare Ambrotype process, do not confuse with Ambroid model-airplane cement! Some Ambrotype cameras were made as late as l927 New ( Ihagee, Dresden) and as late as l93l from recycled ( if that is the word) factory-made spare parts.

What films did William Shakespeare write?

William Shakespeare did not write screenplays, because films did not get invented until about 260 years after his death and films with sound did not get invented until 311 years after his death. The answer is, Shakespeare did not write any films or even filmscripts. He did, however write a number of stageplays which have been adapted for the screen numerous times, both before and after "talkie" pictures. The Internet Movie database lists more than 800 films adapted from his plays, the earliest in 1899 and the most recent only now in development. The Guinness Book of World Records lists Shakespeare as the person who has had more films adapted from his works than any other, and the competition is not even close.
