The Italian film industry took shape between 1903 and 1908, led by three major organizations - Cines, based in Rome; and the Turin-based companies 'Ambrosio' and 'Itala Film'. Other companies were soon to follow in Milan and Naples, and these early companies quickly attained a respectable production quality and were able to market their products both within Italy and abroad.
