The cinema gives pleasure to millions of people, but when we go to see a film, we do not often think of the men who made it possible.
One of the first cinema films was made by Edison, a great American engineer. He made also a machine to show films.
Some people in France made another machine which could show films too. The first real film show took place in Paris in 1895. A group of thirty-three people saw a short film about a train coming to a railway station.
In 1903 one of Edison’s engineers joined all the known and interesting films into one, to make a longer picture. The people who saw it liked it and asked for more; and so more films of this kind were made.
The watchers could see the actors in the film doing something and talking, but they could hear nothing. Words on the screen explained the situation and what the actors and actresses were saying. Usually music was played during the showing of a film.
Now, millions of people go to the cinema, but very few of them think about the great work that goes into the making of a film.
