15.4. "You Ain't Heard Nothing Yet"
1920s movie goers were predominantly entertained by silent movies, but saw the introduction of "talkies" in 1927 with the production of The Jazz Singer, featuring singer and actor, Al Jolson.

The first words ever spoken on film occurred about halfway into The Jazz Singer, when Al Jolson said, "Wait a minute, wait a minute, you ain't heard nothin' yet!"

Option 1: Read one Book 1 and one Book 2.

Book 1:
A. Read a book with the word "silent" in the title. OR
B. Read a book with a title word of at least 4 letters that can be made from the letters in the phrase, "Wait a minute, wait a minute, you ain't heard nothin' yet!" Letters can only be used as often as they appear in target phrase. REQUIRED: State the word.

Book 2:
Read a book by an author whose first and last initials appear in "The Jazz Singer."

OR

Option 2: Read one book that fulfills both requirements of option 1.

Chandni (chandnin31) | 507 comments Just to clarify - does this mean that for Option 2, you need to read either Book1 A OR Book1B AND Book2?

I wanted to read this for Option 2:

DATE for Book1 B and TS in THE JAZZ SINGER.
How I Created My Perfect Prom Date

Does this work? Thanks!

Marie-Anne | 950 comments In the title of the task, "nothing" has a g, but in option B, the word is "nothin". Just checking that there is indeed no "g" allowed?
Thanks

The task requirements are what matter, not the title of the task.

Marie (UK) (mazza1) | 3946 comments the word nothin' has an apostrophe in the phrase can this be ignored in finding the letters of the word in your title?

not sure what you mean. You don't need to find all the words in the title. If you're asking about using a "g," see message 7 above.
