Turkish Cinema
Cinema of Turkey or Turkish cinema (also old known as ''Yeşilçam'' literally means ''The Green Pine'' in Turkish language), () or Türk sineması is the sobriquet that refers to the Turkish film art and industry. It is an important part of Turkish culture, and has flourished over the years, delivering entertainment to audiences in Turkey, Turkish expatriates across Europe, Balkans & Eastern Europe, also more recently prospering in the Arab world and to a lesser extent, the rest of the world. The first film exhibited in the Ottoman Empire was the Lumière Brothers' 1895 film, ''L'Arrivée d'un train en gare de La Ciotat'', which was shown in Istanbul in 1896. ''The Weavers'' (1905), by the Manaki brothers, was the first film made in the Ottoman Empire. The earliest surviving film made in what is present-day Turkey was a documentary entitled ''Ayastefanos'taki Rus Abidesinin Yıkılışı'' (''Demolition of the Russian Monument at San Stefano''), directed by Fuat Uzkınay ...

Cüneyt Arkın
Fahrettin Cüreklibatır (8 September 1937 – 28 June 2022), better known by his stage name Cüneyt Arkın, was a Turkish film actor, director, producer and martial artist. Having starred in somewhere around 300 movies and TV series, he is widely considered one of the most prominent Turkish actors of all time. Arkın's films have ranged from well-received dramas to mockbusters throughout his career spanning four decades. Early in his career, Arkın became known for starring in historical dramas taking place during the first centuries of the Ottoman Empire and Anatolian Seljuks, such as ''Malkoçoğlu Cem Sultan'' and '' Battal Gazi''. While gaining success with such action-based films, he also took part in political films in the late 1970s, the most famous of those being ''The Adam Trilogy'' directed by Remzi Aydın Jöntürk.

Yarınsız Adam
''Yarınsız Adam'' is a Turkish political film by Remzi Aydın Jöntürk, the first in his trilogy. It was succeeded by ''Satılmış Adam'' (''Sold Man'') and ''Yıkılmayan Adam'' (''Indestructible Man''), both filmed in 1977. The film is about the story of Murat, portrayed by Cüneyt Arkın. Murat helps his friend, Kemal, when they are escaping from the police because they steal to survive. This help costs Murat badly and he is sent to prison. During the runtime of the film, viewers see the world from the eyes of a criminal, who lived his childhood in poverty, and understand the gap between the rich and poor in Turkey. Just like the themes of the other political films of Jöntürk, there is a socialist message, an attribution to the inequality of the system. Jöntürk prefers to do it rather sharply in some scenes of the film. For example, the poor little boy that gets in the car of Murat directly states that the rich and the poor can't be friends because wealthy people can't u ...

Political Cinema
Political cinema, in the narrow sense of that portray current or historical events or social conditions through a partisan perspective in order to inform or to agitate the spectator. Political cinema exists in different forms, such as documentaries, short films, feature films, experimental films, and even animated cartoons. Concept In the narrow sense of the term, ''political cinema'' refers to films that do not hide their political stance. In this sense, they differ from other films not because they are political, but because of the way in which their politics is presented.

London: Pluto Pressp. 1 even films that are ostensibly 'apolitical' and escapist, merely promising 'entertainment' as an escape from everyday life, ...

Film Series Introduced In 1976
A film also called a movie, motion picture, moving picture, picture, photoplay or (slang) flick is a work of visual art that simulates experiences and otherwise communicates ideas, stories, perceptions, feelings, beauty, or atmosphere through the use of moving images. These images are generally accompanied by sound and, more rarely, other sensory stimulations. The word "cinema", short for cinematography, is often used to refer to filmmaking and the film industry, and to the art form that is the result of it. Recording and transmission of film The moving images of a film are created by photographing actual scenes with a motion-picture camera, by photographing drawings or miniature models using traditional animation techniques, by means of CGI and computer animation, or by a combination of some or all of these techniques, and other visual effects. Before the introduction of digital production, series of still images were recorded on a strip of chemically sensitized ...
