A compilation film is a type of movie that combines various clips or segments from different sources, often centered around a specific theme or subject. These films can include excerpts from other films, television shows, or even home videos, and are edited together to create a new narrative or experience. Compilation films are popular in genres like documentaries and music videos, where they can showcase a range of styles or highlight particular moments. They often serve to celebrate the work of a specific director, actor, or genre, making them a unique way to appreciate existing content, such as the works of Walt Disney or The Beatles.
