Is Message-Passing The Same As Function-Calling (in Object Oriented Programming)?

Is there any difference between message-passing and function-calling?
Well, yes, there is.
In this video I explain what the differences and the similarities are – and why those differences may be obvious to people who learnt to program in a procedural language such as C or Pascal but not so obvious to people who learnt to program in an object-oriented language such as Java or C#.
