1920s films

1920s films marked a transformative era in cinema, characterized by the transition from silent movies to "talkies," beginning with "The Jazz Singer" in 1927. This decade saw rapid technological innovations, innovative storytelling techniques, and the rise of Hollywood as the film capital. Films often featured bold visual styles, expressive acting, and genre innovations like gangster films and musicals. Silent films relied heavily on exaggerated gestures and title cards, but the advent of synchronized sound revolutionized audience experiences. The 1920s set the foundation for modern filmmaking, blending artistic experimentation with commercial appeal.
