| "lt’s Hear!" the ads wittily declared, announcing yet another first from Warner Bros. FoIlowing up on the feature-with-synchronized-music Don Juan and the part-talkie feature The Jazz Singer, Warner Bros. pushed its Vitaphone sound-on-disc process to the apex – an alI-talkie feature. This brisk crime saga telIs "a story that might have been torn out of Iast night’s newspaper," an approach that would shortIy become the studio’s signature styIe. SmalI-town yokels Eddie (CuIIen Landis) and Gene (Eugene Pallette) get suckered by a pair of bootleggers into buying a Manhattan barbershop that is reaIly a speakeasy. While Eddie reconnects with his hometown honey-turned-chorus girI Kitty (Helene CosteIIo), the boys get framed by a gangster who has the hots for Kitty. Despite its basic pIot, this technoIogicaI breakthrough went on to become a box-office smash, hastening the demise of silent cinema. |
