  1. Historical information about cinematographe

Today is possible to buy a video and watch a film at home, but millions of people all over the world still prefer to go to their town or city cinema for a ‘night out’. And before television arrived in people’s homes, a visit to the cinema was something really special to look forward to.

The ‘golden age’ of film-making was between about 1930 and 1950.

But how did it all begin…?

The first moving pictures were simple ‘shadow shows’ or ‘shadow plays’.

Then came the magic lanterns which projected painted glass slides on to a screen. These became very popular in Europe in the 18th century, and lantern showmen travelled from village to village.

 

But in the 1820s Niepce invented photography, and soon photographs were used instead of the much more expensive glass slides.

In 1893 the world’s first film studio was built by Edison in West Orange, New Jersey.

The Lumiere brothers gave the first performance of their Cinematographe in Paris in 1895, in a room under the Grand Cafe.

 

How did Hollywood begin?

Harvey and Daidia Wilcox came to Los Angeles in 1883, when there were orange and lemon farms in the area. 3 years later they owned fifty hectares of land which they called Hollywood. The Wilcoxes sold the land bit by bit and the first Hollywood studio was built in 1911 by the Nestor Company. The American filmmakers came to California because the weather was good and the Californian workers were cheap to employ.

In 1913 started Paramount Studios and Universal Studios. The Fox Company two years later. Warner Brothers started in 1919 and Columbia in the early 1920.

  1. Listening

I.Working with the text

T:  Listen to the text  and translate it: “Cinema: How it all began.”

 

Cinema was born at the end of the 19th century. The first people who showed the first movies to a paying public were the Lumiere Brothers of France. They did this at the Grand Café, Boulevard des Capucines, Paris, on the 20th February 1896. This was the first cinema show and it was quickly followed by many others in all parts of the world. The first films showed moving people and transport or wars, and short comedies. In 1901 France was the first country to produce a dramatic film, The Story of a Crime, which was followed by The Great Train Robbery in the United States in 1903.

At first, films were shown anywhere: in musical halls, clubs and shops. By 1908, special film theatres were being built to give regular programmes. At this time cinema rapidly developed in both the New and the Old World. Charlie Chaplin made his first film in 1914 in the USA. In 1927, Warner Brothers in Hollywood made the first film in which an actor sang and spoke. The film was called Jazz Singer. It opened a new era in films – the era of the “talkies.” The film mostly told its story with titles, but it had three songs and a short dialogue. There were long lines of people in front of the Warner Theatre in New York. The silent film was dead within a year. The first one hundred percent sound film, Lights of New York, appeared in 1928. The first colour films were made in the 1930s but the black-and-white films are made even today.
