We produce performers today who are more versatile actors, better singers, better dancers, and all three simultaneously. But we no longer produce originals as often: people who were no cast in only their own mold. Cantor, like Fannie Brice, Ed Wynn, Victor Moore, Bert Williams, Sophie Tucker, Mae West, etc. etc. etc., was unique.

This is remarkable, not because it's Eddie Cantor, but because it's one of the first sound on film recordings, developed by Dr. Lee de Forest, an early radio pioneer.

Thank You for posting this jewel.

@jbjindra If you want to see that, check out the Comedy Central roast of Bob Sagat. Skip most of it, because it's pretty crappy, but check out Norm Macdonald’s section.
