Many films are considered hybrids - they straddle several film genres. Genres History: By the end of the silent era, many of the main genres were established: the melodrama, the western, the horror film, comedies, and action-adventure films (from swashbucklers to war movies).
In the most general sense, all movies can be placed into one of the following three categories: narrative, documentary, and experimental. The first half of Chapter 3 is devoted to describing the differences and distinctions among these three major types. Each of these categories can be further divided into subcategories. Among the most interesting subcategories, for scholars of film and for moviegoers alike, are the various genres of narrative movies.
