Jolson Sings Again

The Jolson Story je američki biografski film snimljen 1946. u režiji Alfreda E. Greena. Radnja je prikazivala život, odnosno početke karijere znamenitog pjevača Ala Jolsona (čiji je lik tumačio Larry Parks). Originalno započet kao crno-bijeli film, snimljen je u Technicolor tehnici nakon što je Harry Cohn, šef studija Columbia Pictures, oduševljen dotada snimljenim materijalom i odobrio novo snimanje. Film, koji je mlađim generacijama približio tada već zaboravljenog Jolsona (koji je u snimanju sudjelovao dajući glas Larryju Parksu u muzičkim točkama) je doživio ogroman uspjeh te osvojio nekoliko "Oscara" i bio u službenoj konkurenciji Kanskog festivala 1947. Njegov uspjeh je potakao snimanje nastavka Jolson Sings Again 1949.

U bivšoj Jugoslaviji je prikazivan pod naslovom Priča o Alu Jolsonu.
