Narrated by Leonard Maltin, Cinema Finds Its Voice tells the story of how sound was paired with images in the early era of cinema. Although combining sound with image had been considered since the birth of cinema, the technology needed would take years of enhancements before the industry was completely overhauled.
This documentary offers an in-depth look at the people behind-the-scenes and the technological innovations that culminated in Warner Brothers’ groundbreaking film, “The Jazz Singer” (1927); a renowned success that all but confirmed the industry’s conversion to the sound motion picture.
