	Cinema of the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The cinema of the United States, sometimes simply referred to as Hollywood, is typically used in reference to the larger, studio-produced cinema within the U.S. Much like American popular music, the American film industry has had a profound effect on cinema across the world since the early 20th century.
		In the United States, Thomas Alva Edison was among the first to produce such a device, the kinetoscope, whose heavy-handed patent enforcement caused early filmmakers to look for alternatives.
		This was complemented with the Miracle Decision in which the Supreme Court of the United States reversed its earlier position and stated that motion pictures were an artform entitled to the protection of the First amendment.

	Despite Hurdles, Backers Say Satellite Cinema Will Catch On
		PARIS — A European project to test satellite delivery of digital cinema and other programming has ended its test phase with mixed results, but backers say the idea is certain to catch on given related developments in the United States, China and separate investments in Europe.
		In addition to that obstacle, satellite cinema backers have confronted the relative lack of content available in high-definition format, in part because Hollywood studios have yet to settle on a common technical standard for the service.
		One of the savings that Europe’s cinema hopes to reap with digital cinema is the cost of producing the same film in different languages before sending the tapes to theater destinations.

		The cinema of the United States, sometimes simply called—correctly or not—Hollywood, can perhaps be summed up by the title American film critic Pauline Kael gave a 1968 collection of her reviews: Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.
		By way of explanation, she said that the words, which came from an Italian movie poster, were "perhaps the briefest statement imaginable of the basic appeal of movies." Certainly, they sum up the raw energy of many American films.
		There are several starting points for American cinema, but it was David Wark Griffith's Birth of a Nation that pioneered the filmic vocabulary that still dominates celluoid to this day.

		The final emergence of a truly indigenous English-language poetry in the United States was the work of two poets, Walt Whitman (1819–1892) and Emily Dickinson (1830–1886).

	Cinema and the American Malaise - Critical Essay Humanist - Find Articles
		Because it is easy for people in the United states to distrust and hate the British, producers make them the butt of jokes and the evil oppressors.
		Indeed, cinema in the United States enjoys a dubious heritage of being an organ of conventional wisdom and simplistic, feel-good entertainment.
		The United States today is in a free fall from the deluge of gun violence, and yet movies continue to mete out depictions that are surreal and illusory.

		The Avon Foundation, Jerome's foundation behind the Anthology project, which had built a special, Invisible Cinema theater, designed by Peter Kubelka, and had paid for the acquisition of all the prints voted into the Essential Cinema collection, and the running of Anthology was taken over by people who did not share Jerome's vision.
		The Essential Cinema Repertory, from its very inception, was strongly and sometimes wildly attacked by those who were not familiar with the history of the project, for exclusion of many important films.
		They were not aware of the fact that the Essential Cinema Repertory was intended to serve as a permanent critical tool with new titles continuously added, including possibly the titles that the critics of Anthology had in mind.

		However, in both the United States and South Africa film has also been used as a form of propaganda in which the representation of Blackness was used to promote Black inferiority and White superiority.
		Because Blacks in the United States made numerous advancements ahead of Blacks in South Africa and an independent Black cinema movement has been able to emerge, independent Black cinema in the United States can be used as a model for South Africa.
		Using the United States as model is important so as to avoid the pitfalls experienced by independent Black filmmakers in the United States, but also to learn from their tremendous accomplishments.

	http://xft001/classes/intlfilm/thirdcinema.htm
		The term Third Cinema relies on a distinction between the First and Third worlds which originated out of the colonial era’s division of the world into the center (Europe) and the margins (all of the rest).
		As the 20th century developed, and the United States rose to superpower status, North America (the New, or "second" world) was folded under the umbrella of the First World, now considered the Western, or industrialized world.
		Latin America has perhaps the strongest tradition of Third Cinema, and is the most useful place to study its formation during the radical political movements of the 1960s, which led to anti-colonialist wars of liberation in many places, for example, Fidel Castro’s revolution in Cuba.

	MEXPERIMENTAL CINEMA Catalog Essay
		Experimenting with new forms as modern day alchemists, Alejandro Jodorowsky and cinematographer-turned-director Rafael Corkidi cultivated an esoteric cinema that mingled countercultural fascinations with PreHispanic cultures and Eastern philosophies with stylistic elements of the Baroque and Gothic-plus a dash of Pop and psychedelia.
		For Jodorowsky, strong connections to the avantgarde cinema of the United States are apparent.
		The occult fascinations of Kenneth Anger, the surrealism and ethnopoetics of Maya Deren, the beat hysterics of Robert Frank: all have interstitial moments in Jodorowsky's oeuvre.
