The Jazz Singer

Worth watching simply for its historic significance, which is why I watched it. Was the first "talkie", though the amount of actual talking is limited. Most of the dialogue is still silent and is communicated via titles. The "talking" refers to the songs, and a few conversations.

Made in 1927, its production values obviously pale into insignificance against modern standards. The story isn't too bad though, though linear and a tad predictable and trite.

And, in case it comes up at Trivia Night, the famous first audible words uttered on film were "Wait a minute, wait a minute. You ain't heard nothin' yet!"
