Movies in the 1920s

        During the 1920s, movies were quite popular.  At first, they had no sound, but in 1926, a movie called Don Juan was released, and it was the first movie to have a soundtrack.  Later, a movie called The Jazz Singer was released, and it was the first movie to contain voice, but the movie only partially had voices.  In the year of 1928, the first all talking film was released, Lights of New York.  Finally, in 1929, the first movie to be fully in colour and feature full voices was released.  It was called On With the Show.  In 1927, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, that is most famous for The Academy Awards, was formed.
