What's left behind the scenes

  • This is the first sound feature film.
  • October 6, 1927 – the premiere date of 'The Jazz Singer' – is considered the birthday of sound cinema.
  • The film is widely regarded as the first full-length motion picture with a synchronized musical score, synchronized singing, and dubbed dialogue, although it was originally intended to have no dialogue at all, only singing. All the lines were improvised by the lead actor Al Jolson (1886-1950), and Harry M. Warner (1881-1958), one of the founders of Warner Bros., decided to keep these scenes in the film.
