	Movie studio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In 1893, Thomas Edison built the first movie studio in the USA when he constructed the Black Maria, a tarpaper-covered structure near his laboratories in West Orange, New Jersey, and asked circus, vaudeville and dramatic actors to perform for the camera.
		Another reason that early movie producers located in Southern California was to escape Edison's Motion Picture Patents Company, as he owned almost all the patents relevant to movie production at the time.
		The first movie studio in the Hollywood area was Nestor Studios, which was opened in 1911 by Al Christie for David Horsley.

		Edison received a large share of the profits, although he was eventually driven out of the market by falling prices and increased competition.

		According to the IMDb, Edison is scheduled for theatrical release in France on June 15.
		However, the similarities between Edison the movie and Edison the township has occurred to students at the township's high schools.
		Edison Police Department officials declined to comment beyond saying that the film's production company had not contacted them about the movie, and that the title seems appropriate as "the name Edison is in tribute to a world-reknown inventor, Thomas Edison, and that represents a progressive, positive image," said Lt. Matthew Freeman.

		Although he was a 40 year old playing a 25 year old he produced sufficient energy to overcome the obstacle of years.
		This is a fine piece of acting and is well supported by the bit-parts and by the director who clearly enjoys telling the story of Edison's finest achievements, the invention of the light bulb and of the recording device.
		Edison is a metaphor for America in the early twentieth century, exciting, inventive, thrusting, dynamic but also shallow and lacking in grace.

		From the birth of cinema, movie posters were loaned or “rented” to movie theaters strictly to be displayed to promote a film, then returned to the film exchange or sent to the next theater on the distribution circuit.
		If the austerity of the times and the frugality of theater owners was not enough to keep movie posters out of the hands of the general public, the sweeping paper drives of the war years also did their part to help keep movie memorabilia out of general circulation.
		Five years later, a movie poster for the Lumiere Brothers’ “Arrival of a Train” in 1895 was the first to depict an actual scene from the film.

		As Pollack persuades Ashford to aid his investigation, especially after a beating by Lazerov that sends the reporter to the hospital and his girlfriend Willow (Perabo) into a coma, the uneasy alliance soon expands to include Levon Wallace (Spacey), a veteran Special Investigator who understands that clean streets and dirty cops aren't compatible.
		The city of Edison, its moniker suggestive of electrical power and the positive force of innovation, now pulsates for the young reporter with the power-hungry desires of those who control the grid, some who will do anything in the name of urban renewal, others merely naked ambition.

		You would think a movie with names like Morgan Freeman or Kevin Spacey would be a bankable bet...

		From all I've read about Tom Edison as a young man, much of the adventures shown in this film are entirely factual, which only adds to the allure and charm of this family/school -friendly film.
		Made during a time not unlike today, when America found herself in the midst of a turbulent world on the brink of war, and needed a serious uplift, "Young Tom Edison" is a lighthearted drama starring Mickey Rooney, as the famous scientist at around the age of 12 or 13.
		This is a great movie for children and parents to watch together.
