A Scena Muda

A Scena Muda was a Brazilian cinema magazine published from March 1921 to May 1955. It holds the distinction of being the first Brazilian magazine specialized in cinema. Appearing during the silent film era, the publication focused primarily on American cinema and Hollywood productions, in contrast to its competitor Cinearte, which was more oriented toward Brazilian productions. The magazine ceased publication in May 1955. In 2010, its issues were digitized, and they are now accessible through the digital collection of the Museu Segall (bjksdigital.museusegall.org.br). The magazine is recognized as an important historical source for the study of cinema and modernity in Rio de Janeiro, as referenced in academic works such as Maite Conde's "Consuming Visions: Cinema, Writing, and Modernity in Rio de Janeiro" (2012) and Darlene J. Sadlier's "Latin American Melodrama" (2009).
