The centre of this revolution was the introduction of synchronized sound dialogue, but it affected other areas as well, leaving very few untouched. It was a revolution, just like the gifts of pictures were, that began in America and spread inexorably to the rest of the world, though certain aspects of it had a specific European inflection and some remote corners of the world did not feel the effects of any of it for some time.

 

The revolution can be conveniently dated from 6th October 1927, with the New York premiere of Warner Bros. The Jazz Singer in which Al Jolson pronounces the immortal line 'You ain't heard nothin' yet' with more or less perfect synchronization between his lips in the film and his voice recorded parallel on a disc.

 

A European consortium led by the German companies Siemens and AEG entered the fray and successfully seized a sizable corner of the growing market for sound equipment. Within a few years thousands of theatres in Europe and America were wired for sound using technology licensed from the powerful patent holders. Only in the Soviet Union and Japan was the conversion to sound slow to take effect. For more information please visit http://legacycinemainnovation.com/.
