De film is het verhaal van Asa Joelson, de talentvolle zoon van een cantor die vast van plan is het helemaal te gaan maken in de showbusiness. Nadat hij zijn naam veranderd heeft in Al Jolson, verdringt het publiek zich overal om te luisteren naar de fascinerende zangkunst en de jazz-muziek van Al Jolson.
Nee, helaas is The Jolson Story nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
