00:00Humankind has been responsible for some incredible achievements.
00:04Conquering the landscape, growing the Great Wall of Chinese,
00:08discovering Mona Lisa, and inventing global warming.
00:11But none of these superficially impressive feats
00:14compares to our finest creation, cinema.
00:20Along the way, I'll probe the backstories of Movieland's biggest icons.
00:25Why do they say Marilyn Monroe is the ultimate male fantasy

01:00I'll ask critics, cinematographers, experts and directors
01:04how movies are actually made.
01:06If you made a film that's 12 metres long at the cinema,
01:09would I need a 12-metre TV to watch it at home,
01:12or do you just film it again with smaller actors and sets?
01:15They're... no, I'm just, uh...
01:18These are odd questions. Um...
01:21So join me, Philomena Conk,
01:24as I embark on a blockbuster journey
01:26into the deepest guts of film.
01:28This... is...
01:29It's ComCom Cinema!
01:37It's ComCom Cinema!
01:38It's ComCom Cinema!
01:38It is...
