Happy birthday to the "Cinematographe":
111 years the 28 december 2006.
The first public performance in the Indian Salon of the Grand Café in Paris was 28 December 1895.
This performance was made by the father of Lumiere brothers, Antoine Lumiere (in French, lumiere = light ... a predestined name!). | More in 70mm reading:
