Abstract
For several decades, cinephilia took its paradigm from the French film culture, which has it origins in the mid-twentieth century, and it was linked to a scholarly discourse on cinema and to very specific spaces for its cultivation. However, the digital revolution brought new consumer practices and the Internet catapulted a new crowd
of cinephiles. This paper analyzes the role of digital culture in those new cinephiles and describes how young cinema fans find and use the new virtual spaces to pronounce it today.
KEYWORDS: Cinephilia; cinema; audience studies; fan culture; communication 2.0.
