Abstract
This chapter examines film as both a central and paired text and draws on research literature as well as participant experiences to more fully describe the nature of these textual interactions and the ways in which film as a text might be implemented in instruction as well as how film has been explored as a text in research. These notions of film as text include questions about a canonical approach to the medium. In particular, the chapter highlights the possibilities for uniting film with other texts in literacy instruction as well as positioning film as a text in its own, individual ontology. Additionally, more acceptable and less prevalent uses of film are explored and expanded on in the chapter.
