Best Answer

Movies have scenes, certainly, although often they are more conveniently divided into shots. They do not as a rule have acts as plays do, since they rarely have intermissions where an act division would occur in a play. Some silent movies divided themselves into acts, with each act corresponding to a reel.

Another Answer

When constructing a script for a film, it is important to pace your story so that it conforms to the classic three-act structure. (It's familiar from stage plays, as above.)

For example, some major event occurs at the end of Act I, sometime between 28 and 32 minutes after the start of the film. Act II usually introduces or develops a sub-plot that may or may not be a parallel dramatic tension situation with the main plot. Act III begins the climax of the film, where both the plot and the sub-plot are resolved. Act III is usually the last 20 minutes of a 120 minute film.

Scenes are defined in a script differently than shots. Often, a viewer doesn't notice a scene change. Scene changes occur when the setting or the time changes, and in some films, a scene can run from four to 10 minutes.
