Il Rapporto 2008 su “Il Mercato e l’Industria del Cinema in Italia” ha lo scopo primario di colmare questa lacuna e di offrire agli operatori e agli analisti un quadro più ampio possibile di un universo che attraversa la cultura e la società del nostro Paese. Il Rapporto è stato realizzato con questo spirito dalla Fondazione Ente dello Spettacolo in collaborazione con Cinecittà Luce S.p.A., ed è il frutto della ricerca condotta da un’équipe di studiosi sulla base di una pluralità di fonti e di dati statistici rigorosi. Questo rigore si è misurato in alcuni casi con la relativa indeterminatezza di informazioni provocata dall’assenza di dati attualizzati (ad esempio, per i bilanci societari) e dalla fluidità di notizie in merito a soggetti che operano nel settore secondo una logica a volte occasionale e temporanea. La Fondazione Ente dello Spettacolo opera dal 1946. Finora si è conosciuto molto del cinema italiano soprattutto in termini di È una realtà articolata e multimediale, impegnata nella diffusione, promozione consumo.
