Trivia
When M-G-M asked Jerome Kern what he thought about Robert Walker portraying him, Kern said it was fine but wanted to hear his wife's opinion. He phoned her from the studio and she told him to stay there, portray himself and send Walker home to her.

Goofs
When Kern goes to see Sally at Club Elite in Memphis, he hasn't written Show Boat yet. Therefore, it would be before 1927. However, the song she performs with Van Johnson, "I Won't Dance", wasn't written by Kern until 1935.

Quotes
Victor Herbert: [congratulating Jerome Kern on his composing ability] My boy, you've got a song to sing.

Crazy credits
[Scrolling Prologue] This story of Jerome Kern is best told in the bars and measures, the quarter notes and grace notes of his own music - - that music that sings so eloquently his love of people, love of country, love of life. We who have sung it and will sing it to our children can only be grateful that he gave his life to music - - and gave that music to us.

On December 27, 1927, the curtain went up on the most exciting night of his life - the opening of his immortal "Show Boat." And there we join him -

All those stars singing and dancing.

Till the Clouds Roll By (1946) tells the story of composer Jerome Kern.In this movie he's played by Robert Walker.Van Heflin is James Hessler.Lucille Bremer is his daughter Sally.It has many fine musical numbers.My favorite has to be the one with Angela Lansbury where she's singing How'd You Like to Spoon With Me? and swinging at the same time.There are lot of names appearing in the movie.Judy Garland is in a rather big role as Marilyn Miller.Lena Horne is Julie in Show Boat.Tony Martin is Gaylord Ravenal in Show Boat.Cyd Charisse does a dance specialty in Roberta.Van Johnson is Bandleader in elite club.Esther Williams makes a cameo appearance.Silent era's 'Snub' Pollard appears as Orchestra Drummer.James Finlayson is Candy Vendor.Frank Sinatra sings the very last piece Ol' Man River.Watch this movie and enjoy all that lovely music.
