History:-

In 1927, San Francisco was the setting for the first talking picture, the Jazz Singer?

Some of the most famous names in cinema history, including Charlie Chaplin, Mary Pickford, Errol Flynn, Buster Keaton, and Douglas Fairbanks, made many films in San Francisco?

Motion pictures were actually invented in the San Francisco Bay Area?

In 1880, Leland Stanford and Eadweard Muybridge's collection of films was shown at the San Francisco Art Association, representing the very first time an audience sat down to a real movie screening? Rumor has it they paid 50 cents for the privilege.
