“Films and Cinema”
Presentatio III. WHILE READING
n Now open the book at page 133 and read through the
(time) text, and try to do the task 1.
The history of what we call cinema today began in the
early 19th century. At that time, scientists discovered
that when a sequence of still pictures was set in motion,
they could give the feeling of movement. In the first
two decades of its existence, the cinema developed
rapidly. In those early days, films were little more than Individual
moving photographs, usually about one minute in
length. By 1905, however, films were about five or ten
minutes long. They used changes of scene and camera
positions to tell a story, with actors playing character
parts. In the early 1910s, audiences were able to enjoy
the first long films, but it was not until 1915 that the
cinema really became an industry. From that time, film
makers were prepared to make longer and better films
and build special places where only films were shown.
The cinema changed completely at the end of the
1920s. This was when sound was introduced. The
change began in America and soon spread to the rest of
the world. As the old silent films were being replaced
by spoken ones on the screen, a new cinema form
appeared, the musical cinema.
