Review of The Jazz Singer (1927) by Eric H — 10 Jan 2014
Although this is the first movie to use sound, there are quite a few silent scenes. Nevertheless, this is a pretty cool movie. Most of the part-talkies made from 1927 to 1929 have sadly been lost through the years, and those which remain can only be described as curios and relics of a changing time.
'The Jazz Singer' is important, but it is a hard slog for today's audiences.
