Le Cinéma Au Village : Les Beaux Jours Du Cinéma Ambulant Dans Les Années 1950, Odile Goerg Dec 2020

Le Cinéma Au Village : Les Beaux Jours Du Cinéma Ambulant Dans Les Années 1950, Odile Goerg

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Travelling by cart, but more often by train and later by automobile, films reached small towns and large villages alike. Travelling pictures were the first - and often the only - means of access to cinema for much of the African continent. They made it possible to reach the countryside, albeit randomly and sporadically.

Much Of Society's Unrest Caused By Barrage Of Negative Stereotypes In Films, Anthony Major

UCF Forum

That power is used in film, television, newspapers, radio, art, magazines, music, theatre and the new social media network as a means of influencing and shaping attitudes by providing images and opinions.
