The Singing Blacksmith (1938)
Yiddish film featuring the singing of Moyshe Oysher
20 April 1999 - 2 out of 2 users found this review helpful.
Yankl der Shmid, the Singing Blacksmith, was filmed in New Jersey in the late 1930's. It was originally a play, simplified and brought to the screen as a vehicle to show off the singing talents of Moyshe Oysher as Yankl. Not a great film, but the singing is spectacular, and it's interesting as a period piece. As an extra bonus, the young Yankl is portrayed by Herschel Bernardi, in his first film role.
