Origins of Film

Original cinematographic works from the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th, which marked the beginnings of cinematography (not so much as an industry but as an invention). It covers foundational films by the Lumiére brothers, Mèliés, etc., and goes back more or less to 1914, a year before Griffith changed the codes of cinematographic language with "The Birth of a Nation" in 1915. Also films and documentaries about that era.

Topics are sub-genres and/or themes of any kind (romantic comedy, buddy, sports, etc.) that describe the plot of the movie you are looking for. Topics, however, are not keywords. If you search for a topic like "shark", for example, only movies in which sharks play a significant roll will appear, such as 'Jaws'. But not every movie that has a shark in it will be listed.
