RESUMO
This paper aims at analyzing the cinematography image of the city of Rio de Janeiro in two moments: the 20th Century, for its political relevance as a consequence of the republican project for the city, and nowadays, reflecting upon current cinematography images that are significant for the carioca metropolis, as a counterpoint and assessment of the dreams contained in the republican desire. For the early 20th Century, films shot in the 10´s and 20´s have been selected from research conducted in the films libraries of the Modern Art Museum of Rio de Janeiro (MAM) and of the CTAV - Audiovisual Technical Center of Funarte (National Foundation for the Arts), and at the Brazilian Film Library of São Paulo (Cinemateca Brasileira de São Paulo). The end of the century city image is analyzed in the following films: Ônibus 174 (2002), by José Padilha, Estorvo (2000), by Ruy Guerra e Edificio Master (2002), by Eduardo Coutinho.
