The Jazz Singer (1927)

Director: Al Crosland (Some old shit you've never heard of)
Stars: Al Jolson (More of a singer than an actor, And some old shit you've never heard of)
YesNoSoso: 0

Technically the first movie with sound, because there's some terrible mumbling sounds while Al sings, but the whole thing is more or less silent. It sucks, it sucks as bad as any movie I've ever seen. Its long as a Catholic church service and even more boring. Why do we insist on putting these movies on Top 100 lists? When people are compiling the 100 best paintings of all time, do they include Ugg's blood drawing of a stick figure on the cave wall? Then why include this archaic piece of shit?
