Is Everybody Happy? (1929)
Well, Jolson did it in "The Singing Fool" - then Texas Guinan did it and Sophie Tucker did it, and now Ted Lewis has done it. Only instead of saying "Sonny Boy!" Ted asks "Is Everybody Happy?" The answer is "No!" Ted is not the romantic type — nor is he an actor. As Ted Lewis, entertainer, he is the same old Ted and wields a mean saxophone. Alice Day plays the girl who gets him and Ann Pennington the girl who doesn't. All Talkie.
