Fabulous Dorseys

Considered the greatest of the big band leaders during the 30s and 40s, the Dorseys were known just as much for their feuding as their talent. The boys play themselves in this heartwarming feature that charts their beginnings as the children of poor Irish immigrants in a bleak Pennsylvania mining town. With the help of their childhood friend, singer Jane Howard, the Dorseys are able to escape a rough upbringing and form the jazz combo "The Wild Canaries." Creative differences eventually cause the Dorseys to split up. With the help of famed bandleader Paul Whiteman, their former band members stage a massive concert in an effort to reunite the feuding siblings.
