(1936)

70 minutes.

Musical Drama

Directed by Kurt Neumann

Cast: Bobby Breen, Henry Armetta and George Houston

An orphan (eight year old boy soprano Bobby Breen) gets a chance to sing opera in New York.  There are no pretensions toward cinematic greatness in evidence from the producers of this first of eight black and white RKO musicals that showcase the arresting eight year old boy soprano Bobby Breen, yet reception accorded it by an entertainment-starved public that was grappling with the Great Depression was so laudatory that the succeeding seven works tended to concentrate more upon Breen rather than upon other cast members.
