Fun film facts

Two of the most famous silent films ever made were the French sciencefiction film A Trip to the Moon (1902) and the American film The Great Train Robbery (1903).

The silent film that made the most money ever was The Birth of a Nation (1915), which was produced and directed by D. W. A Griffith. It made $10,000,000.

Auguste Lumiere and his brother made the first film shown in public. However, they didn't believe that films would become very popular. Auguste said, 'Cinema...has nocommercial (商业) future!'

25% of the money by a film comes from ticket sales, 46% from DVD sales, and 29% from television. We don't know how much money people get from popcorn sales, but film fans usually eat a lot of this salty food, especially when watching a horror film.
