The film profiles Jacob Mendelson, a practitioner of Jewish liturgical music (a cantor) who has dedicated his life to preserving the form's traditional vocal stylings.[1] Anjou follows Mendelson around Borough Park, his old neighborhood in Brooklyn. Mendelson, who carries a tuning fork with him at all times, is prone to burst into song. During their journey through Borough Park, Anjou finds that the neighborhood has a fair number of bakers with vocal talents as good as their knishes.[1] Mendelson also recalls when cantors were as popular as baseball players. "They had groupies," he tells Anjou, a strong incentive for a chubby teenager in high school.[1] Mendelson's mother, who had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, was almost obsessed that her son become a cantor. The film reveals an interesting link to celebrity on the part of Mendelson's father: the older Mendelson once co-owned a truck with the father of Steven Spielberg.[1] The movie's original title was Chazz'n, after the profiled cantor's sobriquet "Chazzan Jack Mendelson." It has also been titled A Cantor's Story.[2] References1. ^1 2 3 {{Cite news|title = A Cantor's Tale - Movies - Review|url = https://www.nytimes.com/2006/09/06/movies/06cant.html|newspaper = The New York Times|date = 2006-09-06|access-date = 2015-12-13|issn = 0362-4331|first = Jeannette|last = Catsoulis|archive-url = https://www.webcitation.org/query?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nytimes.com%2F2006%2F09%2F06%2Fmovies%2F06cant.html%3F_r%3D0&date=2015-12-12|archive-date = 2015-12-13}} 2. ^{{Cite web|url = https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0374568/releaseinfo?ref_=tt_dt_dt#akas|title = A Cantor's Tale - Alternate Titles|date = |accessdate = 12 Dec 2015|website = IMDB|publisher = |last = |first = }} External links
