Additional InformationIn New York City, Yussel Rabinowitz (Neil Diamond) trains to be a cantor. Although his father (Laurence Olivier) and wife, Rivka (Catlin Adams), don't approve, he also sings and writes songs for a black soul group under the name Jess Robin. When the group gets an opportunity in California, their leader, Bubba (Franklyn Ajaye), asks Jess to join them. Reluctantly, Rivka and his father let him go. In Los Angeles, Jess meets record company executive Molly Bell (Lucie Arnaz). Impressed by his music, she tries to promote him. However, Jess still struggles and is about to give up when Molly gets him a solo TV spot. Just as Jess seems set for stardom, Rivka and his father arrive to plead for his return. Samson Raphaelson's play about a talented singer's attempts to break away from a restrictive religious family was first filmed in 1927--when it became the first talkie. This--the third version--was made in 1980. Directed by Richard Fleischer after another director was dismissed, the film focuses on Molly's struggles to find opportunities for Jess, then on Jess's subsequent concert performances. Neil Diamond carries the film, singing his own songs with verve.

Great film that stands the test of time
A great story with fine actors and super music by Neil Diamond. No real violence and no foul language, just a good heartwarming tale about a Jewish cantor trying to make it in the pop world. The original film by the same title starred Al Jolson and was the first movie with synchronised sound made in 1927.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

It's Neil Diamond, what else can I say?
Neil Diamond's voice at it's best, and he is a surprisingly good actor. The storyline is good, but Neil's voice makes the movie. I'll never tire of listening to it. Pleased with the quality of the dvd as well.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

The film is one of my all time favourites
The quality is very poor. There is a label on it that suggests it may have been a rental. There is a chip on the edge but doesn’t interfere with the running of the film. Very disappointed.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
