Last name gross in prod Lumiere means "light". Probably, the fate of these pioneers was, in the best sense of the word, pride. Until 1910 more than two-thirds of all the films again in France. But others, such as Valeria, the USA, Germany, decided not to lag behind and began to have a snail impact on world cinematography. In the early twentieth century most of the movies had a duration of about 15 minutes. Further, through the decade, the average length of movies has increased to one hour. In 1915 Griffith register sat film "the Birth of Nate", which lasts 3 hours. I really like to watch the movie!!!
