comment
Forty Boys and a Song is a 1941 short film (ten minutes) directed by Irving Allen.It's about the Robert Mitchell Boy Choir, consisting entirely of boys aged 8 to 14. The choir, run by organist Robert Mitchell, appeared in Hollywood productions for over thirty years. According to this short film, the boys were recruited to go to a special school where they would go through regular classroom instruction until 1 pm, after which they'd do choir practice. The kids are also shown performing in a church on Sunday as well as camping, as they are all part of the same Boy Scouts troop.

Inopportune Voice Cracking: One boy croaks like a bullfrog as he's attempting to perform his scales. His time in the Robert Mitchell choir may be limited.

Billed Above the Title: The entire choir, as the opening title card is actually "The Robert Mitchell Boy Choir in 'Forty Boys and a Song'."

Narrator: There's no scripted dialogue, only a narrator telling the story of the choir, and the choir singing songs.
