Which Film Firsts Happened in New York?

And the answer to this week's trivia is ...

a) the first "talkie"

AND

d) the first 3-D movie


Trick question! Two of these history-making cinematic moments occured in New York. The Jazz Singer, the famous first talkie, premiered in New York in 1927 at the Warner Brothers Theatre. Less well-known is the first full-length 3-D film, In Tune with Tomorrow, which was introduced at the 1939 World's Fair in New York.
