History of movie trailers
Movie trailers originated in 1913 with promotional films for plays and serials shown in theaters. Throughout the 1910s and 1920s, trailers became more common and were produced by theaters, though they remained basic clips with title cards. The National Screen Service dominated trailer production from the 1920s-1960s, creating a template style. In 1927, The Jazz Singer was the first trailer to use sound, a breakthrough. Innovations over the following decades included voiceovers and experimental cutting styles. By the 1960s, studios took control of trailer production as theaters modernized. The mass marketing of Jaws in 1975 through television advertisements, made it the first true "blockbuster" film.

The History Of The Cinema
Marilyn Monroe and Charles Chaplin were famous Hollywood actors. Monroe began as a model and had breakthrough roles in 1950 films. Chaplin was a British actor, director and composer who was renowned for his character of a gentleman tramp. The camera obscura, an early optical device, helped develop photography and eventually led to pinhole cameras and the first motion picture cameras. The first feature length film was Nanook of the North from 1922. In the 1920s, five major film studios dominated Hollywood - Warner Bros, Paramount, RKO, MGM, and 20th Century Fox. Three smaller studios were Universal, United Artists, and Columbia Pictures. Digital cinema began replacing film projectors around 2005.
