Good morning Skycat :-)

On October 6th, 1927 the very first spoken voice in a feature film was heard!. The voice belonged to Al Jolson and the ground breaking movie was – The Jazz Singer!.

The first words ever spoken in a movie were, “Wait a minute, wait a minute!. You ain’t heard nothin’ yet!”Www@Enter-QA@Com

Talkies began in the '20s!. However, they didn't take over cinema until about 1929-30!. The Jazz Singer (1927) is often credited as the first feature-length motion picture with synchronized dialogue sequences and originally presented as a talkie, though Don Juan (1926) was the first major motion picture to premiere with a full-length synchronized soundtrack and numerous earlier sound films had dialogue and all were short subjects such as D!. W!. Griffith's Dream Street (1921)!. Therefore, I would say talkies began to truly advance in the late '20s and by the 1930s had killed the art of silent filming!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

The first talking movies were produced in France before 1900 by Leon Caumont!. They were short films, starring great performers such as Sarah Berhard, in which the movie pictures were synchronized with a gramophone record!. By 1912 Eugene Lauste had discovered the basic method for recording sound on film, while Thomas Edison produced several one-reel talking pictures in the United States!. An American, Lee de Forest, improved the system!.

In all this the public showed little interest until the presentation on October 6, 1927, of The Jazz Singer!. This was a silent picture, starring Al Jolson, with four talking and singing interludes!. Jolson's electric personality and the very much-improved sound began a movie revolution!. Within the year every important picture was being produced as a "talkie"!. By 1930 silent films a thing of the past, and many film stars found themselves has-beens because their voice recorded badly!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

The first commercial screening of movies with fully synchronized sound took place in New York City in April 1923!. But the very first feature length motion picture was The Jazz Singing and it was released in October of 1927!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
