Wikipedia
The primary steps in the commercialization of sound cinema were taken in the United States in the mid-to late 1920s.
At first, the sound films incorporating synchronized dialogue — known as " talking pictures ", or " talkies "— were exclusively shorts ; the earliest feature-length movies with recorded sound included only music and effects.
The first feature film originally presented as a talkie was The Jazz Singer, released in October 1927.
