[78-L] Cantor/Jolson films in the MGM/FOX - A report

[Harold Aherne]

Yes, Kino released it on DVD a few years ago, paired with "St Martin's Lane" from 1938.
 
As a follow-up to the Jolson questions, I *think* TCM has run all the Jolson films
they own, although "Mammy", "Big Boy", and "Say It With Songs" haven't been aired
in a while IIRC.

Might well be worth it

did they ever release Wings of the Morning? saw a 16mm technicolor 
print of that
about 15 years ago - very pretty - not a big horse movie fan, but McCormack was
nice to see (holding his lyrics as always :-)
I believe its in the Public Domain, but haven't come across it on tape/disc
