Rose of Washington Square

1939 NR 1h 26m 6.7

A singer becomes a star in the Ziegfeld Follies, but her marriage to a con man has a bad effect on her career.

New York city in the 1920s: a singer struggles to keep her boyfriend from trouble. When she makes it to Ziegfeld, he heads for five years in jail. Lots of Faye and Jolson singing. The story is so close to the true story of Fanny Brice and Nicky Arnstein (Jules W. Arndt Stein) that he sued the studio in a case that was quickly settled out of court in his favor.
