Format: 1 DVD-Video (85 Min.) : s/w , Stummfilm , NTSC , DVD-R

Edition: 1

ISBN: 1585871605

Content: This delightful comedy opens as Morris Brown, a New Yorker better acquainted with his checkbook than his prayerbook, returns to Galicia with his very American daughter, Mollie (Molly Picon) for a family wedding. The bride, daughter of his traditionally observant brother, and Mollie, whose exuberant antics fill the film, could not be more different. But Mollie unexpectedly meets her match, an engaging young yeshiva scholar who forsakes tradition and joins the secular world to win her heart. East and West features classic scenes of Molly Picon lifting weights and boxing, teaching young villagers to shimmy and stealing away from services to gorge herself before sundown on Yom Kippur. Underlying these hijinks is veteran filmmaker Goldin's affectionate appreciation of differences, for good-natured comedy shapes his portrayal of worldly Jews encountering traditional shtetl life.

Format: 1 DVD-Video (80 Min.) , schwarz-weiß

Uniform Title: Zayn Vaybs Lubovnik

Content: Billed as the first Jewish musical comedy talking picture, "His Wife"s Lover" stars the popular Yiddish theater comedian Ludwig Satz in one of his only surviving film performances. This fast-paced, song-filled comedy benefits from location camerawork of New York City's Lower East Side and solid direction from Sidney Goldin, director of "East and West" (1923), "Uncle Moses" (1932) and "The Cantor's Son" (1937), features previously restored by NCJF. With a script by a female author, Sheyne Rokhl Simkoff, "His Wife's Lover" revels in its role reversals and love triangles all the while exploring the gender issues of its day. When handsome actor Eddie Wien decides to marry, his uncle Oscar Stein warns that all women are frivolous and selfish, only on the lookout for a fat pocketbook. To prove him wrong, Eddie woos shop girl Golde Blumberg while disguised as a repulsive old millionaire "Herman Weingarten". Golde initially resists "Herman" but, forced to escape her dire financial situation, she finally accepts. A second bet is devised and the elaborate farce continues. In the end, the lovers triumph over deceptions and mistaken identities. [jewishfilm.org]

Uniform Title: Uncle Moses

Content: Onkel Moses, ein ehemals armer ostjüdischer Emigrant, betreibt ein florierendes Textilgeschäft in der Lower East Side von New York. Bedenkenlos nimmt er die Tochter eines Angestellten zur Frau, doch die Ehe, in die wegen der wirtschaftlichen Abhängigkeit eingewilligt wurde, verläuft unglücklich. Als die Gewerkschaftsbewegung erstarkt, scheitern auch die geschäftlichen Zukunftspläne. Der in den 30er Jahren spielende Film versucht, ein authentisches Bild des Lebens ostjüdischer Einwanderer in den USA zu vermitteln, und dokumentiert den Umbruch der Traditionen zum modernen amerikanischen Lebensstil. Ein historisch wie kulturell gleichermaßen interessantes Dokument. - Ab 14. [Film-Dienst]

Displeased with what they've heard and unable to agree, the synagogue committee is visited by Leibele's agent who offers them a third alternative: a modern an American Chazan, with "pep and jazz" who can do Kol Nidre with a "two-step" and Netaneh Tokef with a "Black Bottom" (a popular 1920s dance).

Uniform Title: Dem Khazns Zundyl

Content: This Yiddish feature film musical drama marks the screen debut of singer and cantor Moishe Oysher ("Overture to Glory" and "The Singing Blacksmith"). Shot in Pennsylvania near the Pocono Mountains, the film features Oysher in the title role of a wayward youth who makes his way from his Polish shtetl to New York's Lower East Side (the film includes rare glimpses of the Lower East Side and of 2nd Avenue Yiddish theater marquees of the period). While washing floors in a nightclub several years later he is "discovered" and becomes a well-known singer. Ultimately, Oysher's character returns home to the Old Country and reunites with his parents and his childhood sweetheart. In his book on Yiddish cinema "Bridge of Light", critic J. Hoberman calls "The Cantor's Son" an "anti-Jazz Singer," further remarking that the film's story parallels Oysher's own struggle to reconcile his cantorial calling with a career in show business. Like his film character, Oysher, born in Bessarabia the son and grandson of cantors, was both a matinee idol and a celebrated cantor. Oysher was married to his co-star Florence Weiss. After film director Sidney M. Goldin ("Uncle Moses", "East and West") suffered a fatal heart attack during the production of "The Cantor's Son", he was replaced by Stanislavsky-protege Ilya Motlyeff, who is credited as the film's director. The film's score (including the sentimental song "Mayn Shtetele Betz") was composed by Alexander Olshanetsky, a concert violinist and veteran of the 2nd Avenue Yiddish theater. [jewishfilm.org]
