"Turkish Cinema stands out as a cinema that reveals an interesting working system, or "systemlessness", that has no second example in the world.
During this study, we come across numerical records that really surprise people.
For example, in many sources and encyclopedias, under some director biographies, we occasionally read the following notes: "He made nearly three hundred films." These notes, written in a sloppy manner, of course have nothing to do with reality. These numbers can only be valid for actors in Turkish Cinema. It is possible to come across actors who have made over 500 films, let alone 300, in Yeşilçam's mind-bogglingly fast work tempo. But there is no director who has made 300 films, including video films and TV series, in Turkish Cinema.
The reason why we added all the films they made under the director biographies, one by one, with their names, was to find the truth and determine how many films they made. And there may be deficiencies in these numerical determinations. Especially if there are interesting directors like Osman Seden who said to Mehmet Dinler and Nuri Ergün, "I'm bored, you continue" a few days after they started shooting, there may be mistakes that confuse people about who shot which film. And if there are some that we missed, in addition to the disinterest of directors who have difficulty remembering the films they shot, this is of course very natural.
Here are our 11 directors who broke the filmmaking records not only in Turkish Cinema but also in the history of world cinema (excluding the American ... director Griffith who shot 500 short films in a 5-year period with his cameraman Billy Bitzen):"
