Review of The Jazz Singer (1927) by Helen R — 18 Jun 2007
Well, seeing as this is the first film to ever incorporate talking, it passes as one of the greatest early films ever. Myrna Loy making the transition from silent films to talkies was a smooth one. It was very difficult to do back then, and often unsuccessful, but she captured everyone's heart in this film.
Al Jolson doing what he does best, Vaudeville. What can be more entertaining than such a campy film with a glass of red wine and a bowl of popcorn?
