The film was also the first to be created using keyframe animation. The film has been selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry, and was named #6 of The 50 Greatest Cartoons of all time in a 1994 survey of animators and cartoon historians by Jerry Beck.

The General
The General (1926) starring Buster Keaton, Marion Mack
Johnnie loves his train (“The General”) and Annabelle Lee. When the Civil War begins he is turned down for service because he’s more valuable as an engineer. But, Annabelle thinks it’s because he’s a coward. Union spies capture The General with Annabelle on board. So, Johnny must rescue them both.
Review
Buster Keaton’s The General is one of the best comedies ever made. It’s set during the Civil War, telling the story of a young man in the Confederate South. Buster actually based The General on a true story — but don’t take it for history.

The Bashful Bachelor
The Bashful Bachelor - the 2nd movie based on the Lum and Abner radio series.
"Lum (Chester Lauck) courts spinster Geraldine (ZaSu Pitts) in the second installment of the popular Lum and Abner series. The chaste lovebirds fill evenings reading heroic tales of the knights of old. Romance is obvious between the two, however they are both too shy to express their true feelings. At the Jot 'Em Down General Store, an overflowing emporium of odd merchandise, Lum proposes a cockeyed plan to his business partner and best friend Abner (Norris Goff). Lum believes that if they stage several phony emergencies and he is able to rescue Abner in each one of these, his lady love, Geraldine will fall for him for sure, when he finally gets up the gumption to offer his hand in marriage. The plan goes hilariously awry as Lum and Abner's adventures lead them to realize that the truest heroic trait of all is modesty."

Lights of New York - first all-talking movie
Lights of New York - first all-talking movie
""It's Hear!" the ads wittily declared, announcing yet another first from Warner Bros. Following up on the feature-with-synchronized-music Don Juan and the part-talkie feature The Jazz Singer, Warner Bros. pushed its Vitaphone sound-on-disc process to the apex -- an all-talkie feature. This brisk crime saga tells "a story that might have been torn out of last night's newspaper," an approach that would shortly become the studio's signature style. Small-town yokels Eddie (Cullen Landis) and Gene (Eugene Pallette) get suckered by a pair of bootleggers into buying a Manhattan barbershop that is really a speakeasy. While Eddie reconnects with his hometown honey-turned-chorus girl Kitty (Helene Costello), the boys get framed by a gangster who has the hots for Kitty. Despite its basic plot, this technological breakthrough went on to become a box-office smash, hastening the demise of silent cinema."
