mar 18, 1930 - "The Invention of Dreams: The Story of the First Movies Ever Made" written by Rene Tabard in 1930
Description:
"The filmmaker Georges Méilès began his career as a magician and he owned a theater of magic in Paris. This connection with magic helped him immediately understand what the new medium of film was capable of. He was among the first to demonstrate that film didn't have to reflect real life. He quickly realized that film had the power to capture dreams... This changed the movies forever" (Selznick 354-355).Added to timeline:
