Does anyone know this? What was the first movie to feature spoken dialogue throughout the whole thing? Obviously it's not The Jazz Singer, since that was mostly silent. I've tried to find out but I can't really find a clear answer anywhere.

You don't have to be a prick about it. I looked on Google and I couldn't find it.

I wrote "what was the first talkie that had talking all the way through" and that information came up on the top of the page.

Interesting that it was shot for $23k and was considered a “B” picture when released. I guess WB didn’t have much faith in talkies. Maybe they figured it would be a fad.

The film is infamous as an example of the difficulties of adapting to sound. Justly derided for its stilted dialogue and wooden acting.
Hawk Miller: I want you guys to make him disappear.
Sam: Oh, you mean.....
Hawk Miller: Take him.....for....a ride.
Sam: (slow, very slow realization) Ohhhh.
