AFI # 90.5 The Jazz Singer (1927)

#90 on 1998 AFI 100 Greatest Movies of All Time

I am sad to report that The Jazz Singer has not stood the test of time.  At least not for me.  I was so bored 30 minutes in that we had to turn it off.  Which means we didn't even get to the controversial parts.  Because we didn't watch the whole movie, we aren't going to rate it.  So, it will be added to the list as "unrated". 

Mike keeps asking me why I think that this movie hasn't stood the test of time, but that I want to watch Swing Time, which is next on the list.  And the answer is: I don't know, I haven't seen Swing Time yet.  So we'll watch it and then decide if Swing Time is also too boring.  Stay tuned...
