A History of the Early Cinema

The first moving picture shows started in theatres in England, France, and the United States at the end of the 19th century.

In 1905 the first cinema opened in Pittsburgh. The films were short (sometimes just one minute long) and silent, but there was usually a pianist to accompany them. Film shows lasted about half an hour.

Later films became longer and were often Bible stories. Until 1910 the actors were not named. With the longer films their names started to appear on screen. The idea of “film stars” was born.

        In the early years American films were made in or near New York, but in 1910 many film companies moved to California because of the sunshine and the scenery. Westerns - films about cowboys - became very popular, and California was the perfect place to film.

        By 1914 American films were very popular, and Hollywood became a “movie factory”. In the 1920s studios made about 800 films a year, 82% of the world’s films. Hollywood’s silent movie star Charlie Chaplin became famous throughout the world.

        Hollywood made its first movie with sound in 1927. It was called The Jazz Singer. By the end of 1929 nearly all films were “talkies”. “The Golden Age of Hollywood” began.
