Editor's Note:
Le premier dessin, le premier pas de danse, le premier chant: tout cela est depuis toujours tombé dans l'oubli. Mais le cinéma, qui naît à la toute fin du XIXe siècle, a, lui, des témoins sûrs : des écrivains (Gorki, Gourmont, Apollinaire, Tolstoï, Maïakovski, Colette, Kafka, Cendrars, Pirandello, Soupault, Aragon, Cocteau, Biély...), des cinéastes en devenir (Méliès, Griffith, Chaplin, Dreyer, Delluc, L'Herbier, Gance...), des penseurs (Freud, Bergson, Lukàcs, Élie Faure), qui tous élaborent les premiers questionnements et analyses sur l'art naissant qui va révolutionner le XXe siècle. Cette anthologie - une constellation internationale de textes souvent inédits, ignorés ou jamais traduits - invite ceux qui aiment et étudient le cinéma à découvrir le roman des origines d'un art qui, en 1919, sera baptisé le septième.
