This document discusses the history of cinema from its origins to modern developments. It begins by noting that film technology has evolved significantly since movies first began in 1895 when the Lumiere brothers developed the cinematograph. Early cinema relied on principles like persistence of vision to create the illusion of movement. The document then examines key figures and developments in early cinema like D.W. Griffith and F.W. Murnau and their contributions to advancing the art of filmmaking. In conclusion, the document notes that the history of cinema is complex as it has adapted over time with technological changes.
