Movies are an art of our life and they play an important role in the life of our society. Lots of people consider going to the cinema one of the best ways of spending their leisure time.
The film history began in the 1890s, when motion picture cameras were invented and film production companies started to be established. After the Lumiere brothers had invented the cinematography, the cinema widely spread all over the world. The first successful permanent theatre showing only movies was "The Nickelodeon" in Pittsburgh in 1905. And in 1907 movies started to be based on the literature works. Nowadays there are a lot of different versions of one book that you can watch on a big screen.
And if we are talking about cinema theatres, you might be surprised with several different types of cinema theatres: Multiplex, Imax, Independent, Second–Run and Drive–In.
Also it’s safe to say that movies are a powerful force in our modern world. Cinema is used in the field of education. Video classes are really useful when we are talking about studying foreign languages. They can help you to see something wonderful in the world, even if you never leave your place. The news on TV helps to know what happens in the world every day. It also helps to draw the attention of people to different important problems like hunger, poverty, environmental problems and so on.
Cinema is a great entertainment. It’s a pleasant way to relax and get pleasure, while watching something on the screen. Nowadays people can’t just imagine their life without cinematographic art.
