What was the name of the first talking movie released in the 20th century?

The first commercially released feature film featuring synchronised sound (both music and dialogue) was "The Jazz Singer", starring Al Jolson, in 1927. There had been previous attempts to synchronise sound with moving pictures using a recording on a disc, in Paris in 1900, but this was not a very successful technology, as it was hard to match up the sound and image consistently. Some short films with synchronised sound were shown to audiences in New York from 1923, but most commentators agree that "The Jazz Singer" was the first successful full length talking movie.

What was the first talkie motion picture?

"The Jazz Singer", released in 1927, was the first feature-length movie to present audible dialog to audiences. It used a disk recording that was (more or less) synchronized with the film, but was not actually recorded on the film. The Jazz Singer was a transitional effort to provide pre-recorded sound with a movie. Dialog was still shown on title cards, but Jolson's musical numbers were presented in sound. The first movie to have a complete dialog sound track was "Lights of New York", released in 1928.
