MOVIES
Everybody loves movies. We see them at theatres, and we watch them on TV. They are popular with
children and adults, too. We can learn from them, or we can have a good time watching them. They are a
wonderful invention.
We also call movies "motion pictures". "Motion" is a noun for "moving". People have tried to show
motion in pictures for centuries. Even prehistoric artists showed animals running in the cave pictures.
Near the end of the nineteenth century, several Europeans and Americans tried to make movies. No one
knows who made the first one. New York city had the first movie theatre in 1894. People put money in a
small machine and looked into it at the movie. By 1900, movies were popular all over Europe and the
United States. They were not very good, but people liked them because they were new and different.

Every year, people invented ways to make movies better. They invented machines to show the pictures
on a screen. Then everyone could see the motion pictures on the front wall of a theatre instead of inside a
small machine. In 1927, inventors added sound to movies. Then they added color.
Today it costs several million dollars to make a movie. However, movie makers collect millions of
dollars from people at movie theatres because everyone loves movies.
