Cinema Canada is part of the film industry in Canada. Canada is the center for several movie studios that are located in the three largest cities: Vancouver , Toronto and Montreal . The main focus of film production is regional and specific in nature. Since 1911, about 970 English-Canadian and 620 French-Canadian full-length films have been shot in full or in part by the Canadian film industry.
Among filmmakers in English Canada, David Cronenberg , Guy Maddin , Atom Egoyan , Allan King and Michael Snow can be named. In French Canada, these are Claude Jutray , Gilles Carl, Denis Arcan , Jean Bedouin, Robert Lepage , Denis Villeneuve and Michelle Brough . Some Canadians migrate to the American film industry in search of a successful career. The most famous are such as Norman Juison , Jason Reitman , Paul Haggis and James Cameron . All received awards at the most prestigious honorary festivals in the world, and achieve commercial success. James Cameron, in particular, wrote the script and made the most expensive and second-largest box office films: Avatar and Titanic , respectively.
