Cahiers du cinéma is one of the oldest film magazines in history, with its first issue released in 1951. From movie reviews to discussions on the changing landscape of cinema, Cahiers revolutionized how film was documented through its pages. Let's take a quick look at cinema history through the magazine archive...

The origins of filmmaking goes back to the late 19th century, with black and white images used for many years until the invention of color photography in the early 20th century. The beginning of Cahiers saw color film establish itself and eventually become dominant in cinema, and it was in the 1954 special issue that the magazine's first color photograph was published.

The rise of television in the 1950s revolutionized the film industry and redefined traditional forms of entertainment. Film review and cinema gradually embraced the television format, and in 2010, a TV series was named "top film of the decade" by Cahiers for the first time: David Lynch's Twin Peaks Season 3.

As cinema became more popular through the decades, so did the famous faces. Cahiers has always shone a light on the biggest and brightest stars in the industry, from actors to directors and even celebrated characters, like Spider-Man!

Fashion and cinema have always been linked. Since the birth of film, the biggest fashion and costume designers in the world have dressed actors. Some collaborations and costumes have become legendary, like Director Wes Anderson becoming known for iconic fashion moments in his films.
