1. Film
The actors films the movie.
I wonder if "film" can be used as the meaning of "play" as in "I play in the movie". A korean word "촬영하다" has the both meanings. So, I am a little confused. @.@
Plz help me out!!!
2. I look for a proper expression.
When I press my skin, my skin [goes inward].
When I press bread, the bread [goes inward].
I wonder if [goes inward] is correct. If not, plz let me know some proper expressions.
3. press VS press on
I am pressing the wall VS I am pressing on the wall.
I wonder if you use both [press] and [press on] like above.
I know "I press the wall on" is used. But I don't ask about it.
Thanks in advance! :)

This one is a bit easier. You can use this: ' to cork/uncork a wine bottle. When I corked the wine bottle, it went in too far. When I corked the wine bottle, it slid in too far and now I can't get it back out!

1. The actor films the movie- in English, this would make me think that either a) the actor is also the director (ex: the director is also acting in the movie) or b) the actor is holding a video recorder and is literally filming the movie while other people are acting. If you want to say that he has a role in the movie, then you can say 'the 'actor is playing in the movie.' You cannot use 'play' and 'film' interchangeably here. They have different meanings. In English, 촬영 can only refer to filming or shooting (like in photography).
2. indent/ indentation- When I press on my skin, there's an indent. When I press on the bread, there's an indent.
3. I am pressing on the wall. I am pressing on a button on the wall. Press the button. Press down on the button real hard!

The sentences about pressing are comprehensible but as a native speaker I would say"press on my skin" and "press on the bread."
This results in a depression or an indentation. (Indent can be a noun, but I think indentation is more common in the US for the context. I usually only use "an indent" to mean leaving a space before a paragraph in typing.)
