Mammy

Center stage, singing his heart out thats how fans love Al Jolson. And thats what they get in Mammy. Its an ideal showcase for the master showman, giving full rein to Jolsons unique talents in a melodramatic story of a lovelorn minstrel man innocently involved in murderous intrigue. But, as always with Jolson, the star is the story. Here he gets top support from Irving Berlins jazzy-melodious score, including the jaunty Let Me Sing and Im Happy. The films most memorable sequences feature Jolson in full-scale recreations of a genuine minstrel show, complete with interlocutor-end man gags, dancers, tambourine chorus, tunes aplenty and a daffy mock-opera version of Yes, We Have No Bananas. NEWLY REMASTERED WITH RESTORED 2-COLOR TECHNICOLOR SEQUENCES!
