The film told in 9000 documents, paintings and prints, 130,000 photographs, 200,000 posters, 7,000 films and 20,000 volumes. This is the heritage - constantly updated - National Museum of Cinema in Turin, one of the most visited museums with more than 500,000 attendances per year.
Interest museum lies in between other interesting collections of posters of the silent cinema, and those of films like "Fire", "The Glove" and "Cabiria", the first Italian silent film, shot in Turin in 1914 by Giovanni Pastrone , according to a text by Gabriele D'Annunzio.
A large space is given to films of neorealism - the "Bicycle Thief" to "Rome, Open City" - and the films of the golden age of Hollywood in "Sunset Boulevard" to "Citizen Kane, of "The Lady from Shanghai" to "Stagecoach" to "Gilda" to "Singing in the Rain."
Spatial museum reserves a great visual impact with all the credit goes to the architect François Confino.
