Historical, Informative and Witty

The history of sound on film from the beginning. Even before the beginning starting with Alexander Graham Bell's work.

A plethora of film clips showing the development of the various technologies to reproduce sound on film as well as clips from the early films.

Best of all is the narrator, Robert Gitt, whose knowledge and sense of humor add greatly to the enjoyment of this DVD.
