I like how the 1895 film has better quality than some KZfaq videos.

My great-grandfather was born in 1888 and died in 1969. It’s crazy to think he would have gone to the cinema as a 13 year old boy to see George Melies. Then watch cinema evolve as far as seeing 2001: A Space Odyssey. It’s amazing to think how he would have seen cinema evolve in his lifetime.

This dude deserves more than 1m views, cuz this is part our history in humanity, plus he probably worked hard to put all these movies together in order.

The 1970s was really an iconic time for American cinema. You can find anything from the iconic Godfather films to Taxi Driver, A Clockwork Orange, Kramer vs Kramer, Halloween, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Carrie, the Rocky Horror Picture Show, and Star Wars. All within ten years. Truly an iconic and versatile era with a hand in every genre.

30:16 After all these years this still scares the hell out of me!! 😱😱😱

This is one of the best videos in youtube and still its underrated.

22:37 the most ahead of its time movie.

A lot of movies here have a lot of quality in image, you have to appreciate the tech they had in past decades, never had The Good, Bad and The Ugly looked so good.

19:10 A legend is born

regular movies: 1 director disney movies: 1000 directors

17:30 I did not expect that

This is a really impressively put together video compilation Alex Day. Good work done here.

50:55 Batman finally killed joker

EDIT: The timestamps can still be found below but if, at any point, Alex Day decides to make an upgraded version of the Evolution of Cinema featuring 2018 films, this is what I think will make the cut: 2018: Avengers: Infinity War Incredibles 2 The Nun Crazy Rich Asians The Spy Who Dumped Me Tomb Raider 0:00 *Opening Title* 0:12 The Horse in Motion 0:18 Roundhay Garden Scene 0:24 Traffic Crossing Leeds Bridge 0:31 Monkeyshines No. 1 0:40 Men Boxing 0:46 Workers Leaving the Lumiere Factory 0:57 Arrival of a Train at "La Ciotat" Station 1:07 The Kiss 1:14 Bluebeard 1:24 A Trip to the Moon 1:35 The Great Train Robbery 1:46 The Story of The Kelly Gang 1:56 The Thieving Hand 2:06 L'Inferno 2:17 Cabiria 2:27 The Birth of a Nation 2:38 Les Vampires 2:48 Intolerance 2:59 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea 3:10 Broken Blossoms 3:21 The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari 3:31 Way Down East 3:43 The Kid 3:54 Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror 4:05 Safety Last! 4:16 The Phantom of the Opera 4:26 Battleship Potemkin 4:37 The Gold Rush 4:48 The General 4:58 The Jazz Singer 5:09 Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans 5:22 Metropolis 5:34 The Passion of Joan of Arc 5:45 Pandora's Box 5:56 All Quiet on the Western Front 6:06 City Lights 6:17 M 6:28 Frankenstein 6:38 Dracula 6:51 King Kong 7:01 Duck Soup 7:14 It Happened One Night 7:27 Modern Times 7:39 Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs 7:51 Bringing Up Baby 8:04 Stagecoach 8:15 The Wizard of Oz 8:27 Mr. Smith Goes To Washington 8:38 Gone With The Wind 8:49 Fantasia 9:02 Rebecca 9:14 The Great Dictator 9:28 The Grapes of Wrath 9:42 Pinocchio 9:54 The Philadelphia Story 10:07 Citizen Kane 10:21 The Maltese Falcon 10:33 Dumbo 10:45 Bambi 10:57 Double Indemnity 11:09 Casablanca 11:25 Gilda 11:37 It's A Wonderful Life 11:50 The Best Years of Our Lives 12:03 Out of the Past 12:14 The Treasure of the Sierra Madre 12:26 The Third Man 12:38 Cinderella 12:51 Sunset Boulevard 13:05 All About Eve 13:17 Alice in Wonderland 13:29 A Streetcar Named Desire 13:44 Singin' In The Rain 13:56 High Noon 14:08 Peter Pan 14:21 Gentlemen Prefer Blondes 14:33 Rear Window 14:46 Seven Samurai 14:59 On The Waterfront 15:11 Rebel Without A Cause 15:23 Lady and the Tramp 15:36 The Seven Year Itch 15:48 The Searchers 16:00 Giant 16:12 Twelve Angry Men 16:23 Paths of Glory 16:36 The Bridge on the River Kwai 16:50 Vertigo 17:01 North by Northwest 17:13 Ben-Hur 17:26 Some Like It Hot 17:38 Sleeping Beauty 17:50 Psycho 18:03 The Magnificent Seven 18:16 Breakfast at Tiffany's 18:29 West Side Story 18:42 Lawrence of Arabia 18:55 To Kill A Mockingbird 19:09 Dr. No 19:22 The Great Escape 19:35 Cleopatra 19:48 The Birds 20:00 Dr. Strangelove 20:12 Mary Poppins 20:26 Goldfinger 20:38 My Fair Lady 20:51 The Sound of Music 21:06 For A Few Dollars More 21:18 Doctor Zhivago 21:31 The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly 21:43 The Graduate 21:56 The Jungle Book 22:10 Cool Hand Luke 22:25 Planet of the Apes 22:37 2001: A Space Odyssey 22:49 Rosemary's Baby 23:03 Once Upon A Time In The West 23:18 Night of the Living Dead 23:30 Easy Rider 23:43 Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid 23:55 A Clockwork Orange 24:09 The Godfather 24:23 The Exorcist 24:34 American Graffiti 24:48 The Godfather: Part II 25:02 The Texas Chain Saw Massacre 25:16 Chinatown 25:31 The Rocky Horror Picture Show 25:44 Jaws 25:56 One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest 26:08 Taxi Driver 26:20 Rocky 26:32 The Omen 26:45 Carrie 26:59 Annie Hall 27:15 Star Wars: Episode IV -

A Trip To The Moon and L'Inferno are still very impressive to look at and ESPECIALLY for the time period that they were made in.

The 30´s were impressive for it’s time: king kong, frankenstein, dracula.. that much iconic characters still to this day created in a period of great depression

0:00 a legend was born(cinema photography)

1951: "Hey, Stellaaaaa!" 2003: "You're Tearing Me Apart Lisa!"

"The evolution of the american-english cinema" - this should be the correct title.

Congratulations on the movie compilation. Thank you for this trip to the world of cinema. Memorable!

the 80's and 90's were so LIT , they made at least one cult movie a year .seems like centuries ago :(

Wow, 1994 really was THE year

I had the good fortune to watch most of Jean Harlow’s movies and the pre-Code films were notably fresh and often hilarious as compared to her later output. This was the last thing I expected to come out of Hollywood in the early 1930s and it really opened my eyes. Go seek out films of this period because they are great fun.

Movies I know and love: 1941- Dumbo 1950- Cinderella 1951- Alice in Wonderland 1952- Singin' In The Rain 1953- Peter Pan 1955- Lady and the Tramp 1957- 12 Angry Men 1959- Sleeping Beauty 1960- Psycho 1960- The Magnicficent Seven 1961- Breakfast At Tiffany 1962- Dr No 1963- The Birds 1964- Mary Poppins 1964- Goldfinger 1965- For A Few Dollars More 1967- The Jungle Book 1968- Night of The Living Dead 1969- Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid 1973- The Exorcist 1974- The Great Texas Chainsaw Massacre 1975- Jaws 1976- Rocky 1976- The Omen 1976- Carrie 1978- Halloween 1978- Grease 1978- Superman 1979- Alien 1980- The Shining 1980- Friday The 13th 1981- An American Werewolf in London 1981- Indiana Jones and the Raiders of The Lost Ark 1982- The Thing 1982- E.T. The Extra Terrestrial 1983- Scarface 1984- Ghostbusters 1984- The Karate Kid 1984- The Terminator 1984- A Nightmare on Elm Street 1985- The Goonies 1985- Back To The Future 1987- Dirty Dancing 1988- Die Hard 1990- Home Alone 1990- Edward Sccisorhands 1991- Beauty and the Beast 1991- Terminator 2: Judgement Day 1992- Aladdin 1993- Jurassic Park 1994- Pulp Fiction 1994- The Lion King 1994- Dumb and Dumber 1995- Toy Story 1996- Independence Day 1996- Trainspotting 1996- Scream 1996- Mission: Impossible 1996- Space Jam 1997- Titanic 1997- Men in Black 1998- Saving Private Ryan 1998- Mulan 1998- The Truman Show 1999- The Matrix 1999- The Green Mile 2000- X-Men 2000- Cast Away 2000- Gladiator

2:06 scares me more than any horror movie ever.

7:38 is the oldest movie I've ever seen

This is such a delight. So much to learn that is difficult to articulate without the visuals. Thanks so much.

Man, this is immensely interesting to watch the whole way through

Ah yes, my favourite movie: Workers leaving Lumiere factory

It’s amazing what George Melies was able to do way back in 1902 with A trip to the moon. The special effects and editing methods were WAY ahead of his time.

Fantasia, Snow White, Pinocchio, and Bambi are just amazing

This video is itself a masterpiece. Thank You!

11:19 “we’ll always have paris” 😢

I am a film expert and know all the films shown here. A very good selection of examples, but the development of the films goes much further than Hollywood. With the exception of German Expressionism, the first French films and two later Italian films, only Hollywood productions were here. Too bad. Only in Europe were there the French Novelle Vague, Italian Neorealism, Swedish film art by Ingmar Bergman and new German films, as well as British classics. Limiting film history to Hollywood is, in my opinion, a huge loss of masterpieces.

Thank you so much for this time capsule

0:11 - 1870s 0:17 - 1880s 0:31 - 1890s 1:14 - 1900s 2:06 - 1910s 3:20 - 1920s 5:55 - 1930s 8:49 - 1940s 12:37 - 1950s 17:50 - 1960s 23:54 - 1970s 29:25 - 1980s 37:43 - 1990s 50:08 - 2000s 1:05:55 - 2010s

20:28 Bond: "Do you expect me to talk?" Goldfinger: "No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die".

0:18 first boomerang video ever

My mother passed in sept 2020 and this kind of hurts because she showed me much of this as a child. Rest in Peace mom.

Many Thanks for made this clip💖

53:50 The only one that matters.

Have to appreciate the fact that it takes real dedication, ambition, discipline, need, want, vision, pushing, shoving, grabbing, and pulling to get to these high spots

It would be really interesting if someone made a movie that looks really old in the beginning and then looks more and more modern as the plot progresses. And then there should be a behind the scenes video talking about how they used whatever really old black and white cameras they could find for the beginning of the movie and then newer and newer cameras for the middle and then 4k cameras and advanced cgi at the end of the movie.

This video is amazing I’m going to be watching a lot of movies I haven’t seen yet in the coming few months

1:09:40 martin scorcesse has left the chat

All the people in the 1800s and early 1900s movies are dead and we’re looking at them. Wow.

Thank you for posting this ! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I feel Akira in '88 should've been featured. An absolute milestone in animated cinema. Maybe becoming cliche at this point, but it's just so gorgeous.

The 70’s were really a time for cinema. We had The Godfather, Jaws, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Chinatown, Halloween, and many more films!

43:29 - When I enter Twitter nowadays...

Great video - thankssss. Reminding of all great movies with the Year

Rear Window is one of my favorite movies.

That moment you realize the movie you thought was at most 5 years old is actually at least 15 years old...

Animations 3D ToyStory (Disney) 43:29 Shrek (DreamWorks) 53:51 FindingNemo (Disney) 57:18 The Incredibles (Disney) 58:26 Up (Disney) 1:05:04 How to train your dragon (DreamWorks) 1:07:38 Frozen (Disney) 1:12:52 Inside out 1:16:48

Wonderful collection. Thank you very much.

5:36 que calidad de imagen para la epoca, muy bien conservado

27:14 ...and EVERYTHING changed. 💥

I'm a huge cinema & history buff, thank you for putting this together.

1:07 Idk why but this is wholesome to me. You ever see those old paintings like the Mona Lisa or those ones were people looked way different from today? Idk why but to see someone like that smiling and talking to each other warms my heart

This was perfect, thank you.

"I died that day"... next film is Die Hard. Well played.

Thanks for creating this. It was totally awesome and the ending was spot on!

Man, watching this is making my entire life flash back in rapid succession... and I'm not just talking about my fondest memories of watching these films for the first time on either the big or small screen.

Great work! definitely required viewing for Cinema 101 !

29:26 Yes my two favorite movies of all time

1:35 The first ever jump scare in film.

While not being alive for half of these, I feel lucky to have watched some of the old ones but especially to be apart of the masterpieces that have happened in cinema in my life so far…… especially the MCU GOAT. No one can even comprehend how Stan the man, Jon Faveru and Kevin Feige thought of the brilliance. Thank you to all that inspired them to do so. Especially Lucas many people look up to him especially Feige.

Incredible, thank you very much

29:33 the shining

5:21 Radio Gaga - Queen

This is so awesome thank you

This video is so amazing that I watched 1 hour of this video non-stop.

Great job! I like how you added A Nightmare on Elm Street and The Neverending Story!

35:49 still one of the greatest scenes of all time

Great video. I do enjoy the super hero genre but I have to agree with Scorsese regarding franchise films and that they are dominating the movies landscape. It is abundantly clear while watching this montage of great movies and I only wish for more diversity in films over the next decade. The balance between arts and business is just too skewed these days

Mad respect to cameraman who stayed alive this long, just to record this footage.

5:25 how can they do effects in 1927?

Marlon Brando the man who changed acting on screen!!!

Thank you for this videooo

4:15 Thank You so much by including Phantom of the Opera Though I think the musical is the best, it does overshadow original versions like that 1925 version

14:58 this is me after having spent almost an hour and a half watching this video instead of studying for finals

37:14 one of the most heartbreaking movies ever. studio ghibli never disappoint.

Wow! great work! ... "stunning"! 🌟

I really enjoyed this selection though lots of French, German, Italian, Scandinavian and British films are missing. Maybe they could be the focus on a future video? Nevertheless, this was good. Interesting to see, though, how much violence is espoused in so many of the films. I wonder if we have lost the knack of telling a good story without guns, light sabres, violent fist fights, car crashes, swooping superheroes, massive destruction of buildings etc etc The human story can be more complex and intriguing even without bodies strewn over the set.

Casablanca is from 1942 actually, not 1946

27:14 *This is where the fun begins*

Great run through, miss the following movies though: Coming To America 1988, Batman 1989, Batman Begins 2005, Transformers 2007, Prometheus 2012

Zodiac, Transporter and Casino are not mentioned. Great list and amazing effort! Keep up!

That is a damn great list Good work man👍👍

21:32 Best Ending ever.

1:05:17 just a masterpiece

3:20 I got jumpscared LOL

What about the Evolution of Television (1926-2017) or the Evolution of Video Games (1947-2017)?

12:43 cinderella exe has stopped working

Wow! Amazing!

Alex Day, very well done. Well done. Good job!
