Evangeline is a 1929 American synchronized sound film directed by Edwin Carewe and starring Dolores del Río. While the film has no audible dialog, it was released with a synchronized musical score with sound effects using both the sound-on-disc and sound-on-film process. The film was based on a Arthur Hopkins produced play that made it to Broadway in 1913. It is the last film version of the 1847 poem of the same name by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow that did not include any dialogue.
