4.0
A good example of an early musical. Has more of a plot than average for the time. The film is well preserved, but audio recording techniques clearly had not yet been mastered. The weakest part of the film is the comedy bits.

A picture of jazz-mad youth. More thrilling than "Our Moderns" or "Our Dancing Daughters"
