Juggling in Movies

Child's Cry (1986)

[Gilbert Cates film; Lindsay Wagner, Peter Coyote, Taliesin Jaffe]

TV Movie. A social worker (Lindsay Wagner) starts working with a shy, withdrawn 6-year-old whom she believes is the victim of sexual abuse.

At 35:02, for 10 seconds, Dan McFeely and Bob Mendelsohn pass 6 clubs and speak a bit, which they weren't supposed to be doing as extras, but it allowed them to join the Screen Actors Guild as a result. The juggling scene had an abuse victim show a bit of excitement in an otherwise withdrawn existence. Attracted by the skill and joy of Bob and Dan juggling at the L.A. Zoo, our tot shows a smile.

The entire movie may be seen here.
