Released in 1938, Yankl Der Schmid is a notable film directed by Edgar G. Ulmer, running about 116 minutes.

What it’s about. Moishe Oysher, the renowned cantor and star of Yiddish radio, stars in Edgar G. Ulmer’s musical version of David Pinski’s play Yankl der Shmid. Singing, dancing, and flashing his eyes, Oysher gives his most robust performance as a passionate shtetl blacksmith who must struggle against temptation to become a mensch. Recently rediscovered footage makes this the most complete extant version of Ulmer’s lively folk operetta, replete with an example of Yiddish swing.

Who’s in it. Yankl Der Schmid stars Moise Oysher as Yankel, Miriam Riselle as Tamara, Florence Weiss as Rivke and Anna Appel as Chaya Peshe, among others.
