The King of Jazz
Not yet rated
Time Out says
Jazz? Whiteman may not have been the hottest swinger in town, but this is still hugely enjoyable, partly because of the marvellous two-strip Technicolor, partly because it dispenses with story altogether to focus on a lavishly designed musical revue. Catch Joe Venuti on fiddle, and Whiteman and his boys pounding out Gershwin's 'Rhapsody in Blue'.Author: GA
