for some years I thought Larry Parks really did sing in this film, until my father told me at the tender age of eleven that it was a man called Al Jolson. I'd never heard of him and was a little disappointed until I realized what a true entertainer Al Jolson was/bit of my growing up days
terrific scene and larry parks was perfect. without his performance film would not have gone over like it did in 1946-7. they picked the right guy. bravo
I just have to keep watching this one Pat....i should be in Philly with the Jolson crowd but i'm stuck here :(( I got the 3 hour dvd of Al's songs on loud though.The neighbours love him...well they have not complained though..lol
One of lovely Doris' favourites. This reminds me of the GOOD times we had singing along to all the songs when I visited her. Wonderful 'inny' !! .)))
