Unit 13: Films and cinema - Lesson 1:Reading
The history of what we call cinema today began in the early 19
th

century. At that time, scientists discovered that when a sequence of still
pictures were 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 moving photographs,
usually about one minute in length. By 1905, however, films were about
five or ten minutes long. They used changes of scence and camera
positions to tell a story, with actors playing character parts. In the early
1901s, 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 film 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.
