The Yiddish talking picture, “The Jewish Mother,” was presented at a local theatre without any of the unpleasant disturbances that marred the showing of the Yiddish talkie in Tel Aviv last week. The fact that no objections were raised to the Yiddish talkie in Jerusalem may be due to the fact that the film was really a talkie in name only as all of the dialogue and singing parts were eliminated.
