For five generations, men in the Rabinowitz family have been Cantors in the synagogue, but Jakie is more interested in jazz and ragtime music. Jakie leaves his New York home for good. After years on his own, now calling himself Jack Robin, he gets an important opportunity -- on Broadway. (Warner Bros. Home Entertainment)
Recensie (1)
This is a film that simply must be evaluated in the sense that it was a milestone as the first sound film. Still, it's essentially a silent film where only the singing passages truly feature sound. The film forever changed cinema history, but it remains just an average work that doesn't stand out in acting, story, and ultimately even musically. ()
