This study analyzes the aspects related to the movie theatres in Novo Hamburgo, Brazil, from 1960 to 2000. We are interested in understanding how did the transformations in these spaces took place, from the time when the movie theatres were located near the sidewalks of busy streets, in the so-called cine-theatros, up to their migration to the city's shopping mall in the 1990's. We aim to understand such proposed investigation through the research of film-related information in print media, in the NH newspaper, according to the content analysis methodology; as well as through oral history interviews with subjects that witnessed and experienced that historical period, so that we can notice how did the subjects follow the technological change and how did these changes did influence their behavior in relation to the social act of "going to the movies".
