KING OF JAZZ Paul Whiteman BING CROSBY John Boles 1930 Pre-Code Musical DVD * FREE USA SHIPPING!
This great Region Free (will play in all countries) DVD is BRAND NEW!
This RARE 1930 Pre-Code musical COLOR sound movie dvd release is titled... KING OF JAZZ
Director: John Murray Anderson
The early Technicolor production King of Jazz is certainly the most elaborate of the all-star musicals of the talkie era. Staged by Broadway impresario John Murray Anderson, the film is held together by the charismatic personality of rotund bandleader Paul Whiteman. The show begins with a Walter Lantz cartoon wherein it is recalled how Whiteman earned the title of the King of Jazz (Lantz's animated star Oswald Rabbit makes a brief appearance). Then Whiteman appears in the flesh, coaxing his miniaturized orchestra out of a small box. The film then assumes the traditional revue format, with brief comedy sketches featuring such stars as Laura LaPlante and Slim Summerville interspersed with some of the most spectacular production numbers ever captured on film. The musical talent includes John Boles, the Rhythm Boys (with Bing Crosby), and "swing" violinist Joe Venuti. Highlights include a full-length "picturization" of Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue" (with Gershwin look-alike Roy Bargy at the piano), the surrealistic "Happy Feet", the splendiferous "Bridal Veil", and the gargantuan "Melting Pot" finale.
