When Warner Bros. released The Jazz Singer in 1927, the era of silent films came to an end, but some studio heads believed sound to be a fad. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) did not release a sound film until 1928; its first musical was 1929’s The Broadway Melody, a backstage story full of young women in abbreviated costumes. The studio intended to follow this film with similar moneymakers, and it turned down King Vidor’s proposal of an all-black musical tragedy set among impoverished farmers.
