The Jazz Singer - 25th Anniversary Edition 

Description

Not much jazz spoken in this 1980 version of the Jolson classic, directed by Richard Fleischer (The Vikings) and starring a very tentative Neil Diamond as a cantor's son who would rather sing commercially than in a synagogue. The soundtrack is tedious, the portrait of L.A.'s music industry preposterous, and Diamond (despite his talents as a singer-songwriter in the real world) can't help but look like a speck on the wall in the presence of Laurence Olivier, who plays his father. --Tom Keogh



Customer reviews for 'The Jazz Singer - 25th Anniversary Edition'

«Neil Diamond, of course»

If you read my other review of Neil Diamond's Love at the Greek, you know I'm a 40 year fan! It was so great to get this DVD to replace my old VHS version which I lost during a move. I read the other reviews on this and yes, it's a little old and grainy, but doesn't that make it even better? Ever been in one of those old buildings in New York...that's what they look like. If you had the original, you know it's not a spiffy new HD version, but the story is just as good and enjoyable as it was when I got it as my very first VHS purchase twenty five years ago. It's kind of fun to check out the hairdo (on Neil Diamond more than anyone else). Lots of enjoyment for his fans and has lots of good and fun music.
