A Brief
History Of Hollywood Movies
In the 1880s, the
American stage was
dominated by 'Vaudeville
shows', which were
cherished by the
residents of North
America. Being the
primitive genre of
variety entertainment,
these shows differed
from burlesque. As
entrepreneurs started
experimenting with their
movie-making skills,
these shows lost all of
their glory. Here,
achievement of the film,
'The Great Train
Robbery' is noteworthy.
In 1910, director
D.W.Griffith, with his
troop, started filming
in downtown Los Angeles.
While searching for a
more apt location, they
found it in a village
that was miles northward
-- 'Hollywood'. The
first movie shot by
Griffith in Hollywood
was 'In Old California',
a melodrama of
California. Thorough
research work identifies
a number of points that
ushered the beginning of
Hollywood movies. But,
it was Griffith's 'Birth
Of A Nation', which was
the pioneering endeavor
that whistled a
never-ending journey of
American cinema.
