I am new with databases and intend to do my first project with

Well, what I need it is supposed to be an easy database: 8 cinemas,
with about 10 films running in each of them. I would like to
understand if 8 cinemas should be the entities in eomodeler, and the
films, genre, etc, their attributes or if there is another way to
establish the logical relationships in order to find the different
movies running in different cinemas and make it easy to update
weekly...
Well, relationships I see in your project include Films, Genres,
Cinemas.
EOModeler is the ideal way to manage database relationships for a
WebObjects application.
You'll want to look at this example and borrow from it (if you don't
already have a book with other examples):

EnterpriseObjectsApp/chapter_11_section_1.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/

By the way, I have installed the JDBC driver for mysql with success
and it looks like eomodeler can access the database normally. To
create the database I have used Navicat. Do you suggest me to go on
with this project using mysql or should I better use another database?
EOModeler works just fine with MySQL. I've got several projects that
use the combination. There are other databases, but it's easy to get
hung up on that rather than learning WO.
My personal feeling: if you have to ask which database would be best
for you, MySQL is a good place to start.
