Description

The revolutionary medium of film has reflected and shaped our culture for over a century. In this absorbing, fully up-to-date millennium edition, Cinema Year by Year takes you on an exhilarating voyage through the world of movies, from its inception in the 1890s to the technical ingenuity of the present day. Crammed with movie stills, studio portraits, "behind the scenes" photographs, and classic posters. Over 970 authoritative pages of key movie events, facts, and figures. Special features look at different elements of film history, including The Silent Era, The New Wave, Special Effects and The Rise of the Independent Movie. From the Lumiere brothers' historic premiere of 1895 to the runaway success of 1999's American Beauty, movies have exerted an extraordinary and wide-reaching influence over us. The lively newspaper-style approach brings unprecedented immediacy to this irresistible story, recounted year by year as it happened. Ready-reference pages list the key events and Oscar winners for each year and over 3,000 illustrations bring new life to the stars and scenes of over a century of film history. This unique reference work is the most entertaining and detailed illustrated history of cinema ever published.
