The spreading of cinematography in Russia started with the demonstration of the Lumtere brothers' film in May 1896 in St. Petersburg and Moscow and later in Nizhni Novgorod. The film making industry developed mainly in St. Petersburg and in Moscow and its development is firmly connected with the name of A. Khanzhonkov, who founded the first film studios. In the '20s the stars of silent films were V. Kholodnaya, V. Polonski, V. Mashkov and others. The most popular genres of Russian films were historic films and screen versions of famous novels, such as Aelita by A. Tolstoi, and Quiet Flows the Don by M. Sholokhov. The first sound films simultaneously appeared in three countries, the USSR. USA, and Germany at the end of the 1920s. In October 1929 the first sound cinema house started its work. The greatest attention was paid to films for children. One of the most famous directors is A. Rou, the creator of fairy tales. And another famous actor and director whose name is inseparably linked with children’s films is R. Bykov. Several generations of children enjoy his films Attention! The Tortoise, and Aibolit 66. The names of N. Mikhalkov, A. Konchalovski and A. Tarkovski are known all over the world as creators of unforgettable, realistic pieces of art.
