Films Directed By Ray Nazarro
A film also called a movie, motion picture, moving picture, picture, photoplay or (slang) flick is a work of visual art that simulates experiences and otherwise communicates ideas, stories, perceptions, feelings, beauty, or atmosphere through the use of moving images. These images are generally accompanied by sound and, more rarely, other sensory stimulations.

The feminine version is Roberta. The Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish form is Roberto.
