| | Rose of Washington Square : Video (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29) |
 | | And one of the jewels in this vast treasure chest that is the cinema is "Rose of Washington Square," a 1939 picture from 20th Century Fox, filmed in glorious B&W, directed by Gregory Ratoff and starring Tyrone Power, Alice Faye and Al Jolson. |
 | | Faye is Rose Sargent, a struggling vaudeville singer, teamed up with Ted Cotter (Jolson), who together have hopes and dreams of making it to the big time. |
 | | Ted sees Bart for what he is, but his advice to Rose falls on deaf ears, blinded as she is by her unconditional love for a man who stands in the way of not only her success as an artist, but her happiness, as well. |
