Alexander’s Ragtime Band – Roger Grant, a classical violinist, disappoints his family and teacher when he organizes a jazz band, but he and the band become successful. Roger falls in love with his singer Stella, but his reluctance to lose her leads him to thwart her efforts to become a solo star. When the World War separates them in 1917, Stella marries Roger’s best friend Charlie. Roger comes home after the war and an important concert at Carnegie Hall brings the corners of the romantic triangle together.

Test of Time
Half a century ago, when I was 10, I wanted to dance my way home after seeing this film at the old Princess Theater in Urbana, Illinois, the theater where Roger Ebert said he fell in love with movies. In August, 1999, I rediscovered the film on a rented video cassette. Two days ago I bought the video. Irving Berlin wrote so many great songs that they carry the narrative of star-crossed lovers in the years before and after World War I as well.

Tyrone Power scrumptious.
Tyrone Power gorgeous, and scrumptious, etc. Alice Faye with her wonderful, throaty voice, is always a reminder of her signature voice range. A youngish Ethel Merman was a surprise to see here, and a wonder that they kept her to the second part of the movie. Don Ameche is just gorgeous, too.
Jack Haley a fabulous dancer, and I know that the next year he performed as the Tin Woodman in "Wizard of Oz", also an ensemble picture like this one.
I really liked the constant barrage of songs written by Irving Berlin. That boy was really a prolific composer.
Power was good as an actor when his character went to World War I, later coming home with a changed demeanor and denying that his walking cane was from any war injury. He seemed to be more serious than before. In the beginning of the movie, he was a classical music performer who later lightened up and began playing the newly-popular pre-war ragtime music.
I did enjoy seeing Alice Faye and Ethel Merman singing together toward the end of the movie. This was a treat that I do not recall seeing in any other movie. Their low and higher voices actually complemented each other. That they were each interested in the same man did not seem to really matter.
In this movie, Ethel was not as recognizable as in later movies in which she would appear, full-figured, in such song-belting movies as "There's No Business Like Show Business" and "Call Me Madam". She was great in those movies, as well as this one, however.
I do enjoy seeing this movie, over and over again. I see different nuances every time.

DVD is utter crap

DVD is utter crap,it's not genuine and it is a burnt copy with poor quality. I got burnt purchasing this. Buyer beware this shop is questionable

Unholy trinity

Three stars for the movie only. In spite of having leading actors, I was quite
disappointed with the overall movie. Good western movies are quite a
rarity nowadays.
As for the service, Mr. Brady has always delivered and is a pleasure to talk to.

Terrible...only about 2/3 of the movie was there.I complained snd got zero response...I would like a refund.

A highly entertaining B-movie!

It may be considered a B-movie, but I found this film to be highly entertaining. The practical effects were great, and the performances by Ally Sheedy and Lance Henriksen were superb!
