I think every artform has a central pillar that belongs to it and it alone.
If you remove lyrics from a song, you still have music, the other way around, now it's poetry etc etc.
And I sometimes worry we're defining film by dramaturgy alone and to the exclusion of what makes film FILM.

If you take away actors and a script you can still make cinema (experimental, verité documentary etc, all as valid as traditional narrative film)
If you take away the camera and the edit, now you're making theatre, not a film.
This is why the camera matters as much as actors and a script.
