CiNii 図書 - Cinema : the first hundred years

In 1893 Thomas Alva Edison built the first film studio, a hut on a pivot which could be rotated to follow the sun. The first film came later the same year, when a camera caught one of Edison's assistants mid-sneeze. From inauspicious, low-budget start has grown a medium that has influenced world history as powerfully as history has influenced it. In "Cinema: The First Hundred Years", David Shipman takes a year-by-year look at cinema's phenomenal growth. He describes the best - and worst - films from each year, charts the rise and fall of the stars, and records the staggering technical developments. He shows, too, how the century's films reflect our attitudes towards sex, religion, politics and racism.

内容説明

The century's films offer an insight into social changes. They both demonstrate and reflect our attitude to sex, religion, politics and racism, as well as reveal our shifting tastes in fashion, architecture, interior design, travel and language. Starting with 1893, when Thomas Alva Edison built the first film studio, this book takes a year-by-year look at new developments in cinema and how world events were reflected by the year's films. It also records the cinematic events that made headlines and examines the films that were popular with the public and those admired by the press.
