lights of new york originally started out as an experimental two reel vitaphone short that eventually snowballed into the first all talkie feature film. helene costelle was supposedly one of the most beautiful actresses in hollywood and sister to (in my opinion the real beauty) dolores costello and who seemed to get all the breaks. poor helene is best known for appearing in this pretty dreary film that bought a revolution to hollywood. two bootleggers on the lam in main street convince a couple of small town barbers to try their luck on broadway. the barbers eddie (cullen landis) and gene (eugene palette) do not realise that their barber shop is soon a cover for illegal bootlegging activities. they soon do realise it and regret the day they left their small town. the only thing keeping them going is the loan that eddie mother gave them and that they desperately want to pay back. eddie becomes re acquainted with kitty lewis (helene costello) a girl from his home town who has made good on broadway. kitty is worried about hawk miller (wheeler oakman) who is always hanging around her but eddie and innocently and thinks she is exaggerating as hawk already has a girlfriend molly (gladys brockwell) but to reassure her he gives her a little handgun to frighten unwanted admirers away. hawk and who has killed a police officer and has the feds closing in and decides to frame eddie. meanwhile molly is getting pretty fed up with hawks treatment of her and after a showdown where he tells her he is after a chicken and not an old hen the stage is set for  murder. the fact is it isn not completely awful and apart from gangsters and showgirls alike speaking in their best elocution voices and that was still happening in films in 1930. gladys brockwell (if a trifle melodramatic) and eugene palette (quite natural) were okay and were the most seasoned actors in the cast. there was no john or ethel barrymore to be seen  cullen landis and helene costello soon returned to the obscurity from which they had come. i also do not notice much of the hidden mike  where people had to be grouped around different objects ie a telephone or sitting on a couch before they could engage in conversation. people who saw it at the cinema probably started to think that all policeman talked in that flat monotone as that trend continued in many early talkies ie little caesar (1930). in any case they were probably intrigued by the novelty of a completely all talkie  with some singing and dancing  film in 1928. recommended.
