Film and Learn: His Wife's Lover
Billed as the "first Jewish musical comedy talking picture," His Wifes Lover stars the popular Yiddish theater comedian Ludwig Satz in one of his only surviving film performances. This fast-paced, song-filled comedy benefits from location camerawork of New York Citys Lower East Side and solid direction from Sidney Goldin, director of East and West (1923), Uncle Moses (1932) and The Cantors Son (1937). With a script by a female author, Sheyne Rokhl Simkoff, His Wifes Lover revels in its role reversals and love triangles all the while exploring the gender issues of its day.
