Talkie
(noun)
A motion picture with synchronized sound, especially one with spoken dialogue.
Origin:
From the word "talk".
Examples:
- The talkie was a revolution in the world of cinema, it allowed audiences to hear the actors' voices for the first time.
- I can't believe how primitive the special effects in that old talkie were.
- Talkies replaced silent films and became the norm in the movie industry in the late 1920s.
- The first feature-length talkie was "The Jazz Singer", released in 1927.
- I prefer silent films over talkies, I think the lack of dialogue makes the storytelling more powerful.
