Edison is first seen with his wife, Mina. Then he's interviewed by Harvey Firestone (I'm not sure, but I think it is him.) At the end the picture runs out, but sound continues as Edison speaks about Einstein's Theory.
I like his reply about the talking pictures "Well, I don't know, I've never heard them." He was almost completly deaf, so you can see that Firestone is handing him sheets of paper so he can read the question.
Interesting when Edison is asked about Einstein's theory and he reples nothing because I can't understand it. I think my favorite reply to this question was in the Wheeler and Woolsey film Diplomaniacs. When Bert Wheeler asks Robert Woolsey that question he replies "they'll never be able to enforce it."
