such as "pop art", "folk art", etc. - But what they all do is reflect and communicate the individual artist's interface with reality. In film, this does not need to be limited to one genre - the so-called "art film". A film like "Saving Private Ryan" could have been art - if Spielberg would have drawn on his personal emotions or experiences and show us (through the performance of an actor, dialogue, lighting, cinematography, whatever) those emotions or experiences.You can have an action/adventure, a comedy, a drama, a sci-fi movie, and they can all be "art".
Also, a lot of the great classic films DID make money in their day. The problem is that today's audience wants the movie equivalent of fast food.
I gave at the office!
