Actually, I did an A level in film studies a couple of years ago and I can't even watch a film now without thinking , Mise-en-scène, camera angles, light, space etc... I actually am interested in the technical aspects of film making. Photographers are interested in the technical ins and outs of shots if its a shot they would some day like to achieve themselves. Nothing wrong with asking " How did they do that?", looking at exif data can facilitate learning.
