Is nobody at all making film anymore? I know the big companies have all moved on to digital but I figured there had to be a niche market for film.

Some Brownies use the physical format of 620 film. It is no longer manufactured.[1] People can respool 620 spindles from commercially available 120 physical format.

There's actually a resurgence in film making. A bunch of small film makers are starting production again (ADOX and Ferrania come to mind) and Kodak recently reintroduced T-Max P3200 and is in the process of ramping up Ektachrome production.
