Punch and Jody

Glenn Ford, Pam Griffin, Ruth Roman, Kathleen Widdoes, Billy Barty

released: 1974 Nov 26   duration: 1:13:14

When a woman dies in a car accident, her former husband (a traveling circus worker) learns that his wife was pregnant when she divorced him many years earlier. The now teen-aged daughter enters his life. Can they form a relationship?

A stand-in is used for actor Pat Morita to make it look like he is juggling in two scenes.

At 1:02:34, the stand-in, seen from behind, juggles 4 plates for 2 seconds. When Morita is then seen from the front, showing his face, he makes only 3 throws and no catches.

At 1:03:38, the stand-in, seen from behind, juggles 3 clubs for 2 seconds. When Morita is then seen from the front, he again makes 3 throws and no catches. We can even see the club thrown first falling past his hand and on its way to hit the floor.

The entire movie may be seen here.
