@dll0990 Al Jolson's birth name was "Asa Yoelson". His father was a very famous rabbi and cantor named Moses Reuben Yoelson. Many Hollywood studios changed either one or both of their names. Another eg. is Walter Matthau. He was born Walter Matuschanskayasky.
I can't wait to see the part where his drug addiction spirls out of control.

Bill Demarest was amazing as Steve Martin.
His real life relationship with Jolson was fascinating.
