CHAPTER ONE

1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND OF STUDY

Cinema has been one of the greatest influences in our modern life, and it’s also a form of art, the seventh art along with photography, architecture, literature, play, painting and music. It’s the combination of technology, business, entertainment and aesthetics ,each and everything of these four has important role in present day world and it’s also visible in the variation of its forms, Film is technology(picture taken in the celluloid camera and editing),movie is the business and entertainment, and cinema is the aesthetics (McCain, 2009). Cinema, popular or parallel, a visual art of story–telling with rich inputs of music, screenplay, cast and script, mirrors the contemporary society in which it functions. From emotional dramas to candy floss romances to action-thrillers, cinema derives its sustenance, ideas and imaginations from its surroundings. The images cinema creates, surreal or tangled wave of deceit, need to be in sync with societal aspirations and basic urge of humanity to recreate and have fun and entertainment (Brito and Barros, 2005). In its long journey of more than a century, cinema has transformed itself from being a taboo and absolute no-no to a virtual way of life.

Social dynamics has always regulated the content of cinema. The main protagonist of any film fights villains who are manifestations of contemporary societal evils from village money-lender to land-hawks to advocates of dowry, dons and modern day terrorists. It provides a platform that reflects the growth of economy, politics, and technological advancements. Films are useful for knowing the history of ancient world (Murphy, 2008). A lot of countries of the world are involved with Film making through their own industry, among them the most powerful, organized, popular and influential is Hollywood which entertains the total world population and not only that it surprises the world with the advancement of technology.

A movie is not only a visual treat to its audience but it also an account of societal, economic and political set up in which a person is living. If we want to acquire the critical tools to understand the medium of film in the context of economic, industrial, social and cultural factors, from its beginnings in 1895 right up to the present day, then we must have to work on this.
