<p>My career goal is to become a film director. My dilemma is whether or not to enter college as a film major. Which would be more useful in applying to a graduate film school, a BFA in film or a BA in English. The benefits of majoring in English is that I would be attending FSU which is practically free being a Florida resident. So should I enter college as a Film or English grad if I ultimately wish to receive a MFA in film.</p>
<p>I know next to nothing about filmmaking except like seeing and thinking about any kind of movies from Wenders to Disney.

and your thread is getting under the pile.
here is an old debate I posted in. might or might not help.
