Juggling in Movies

Surviving Picasso (1996)

[Anthony Hopkins, Natascha McElhone, Julianne Moore, Joss Ackland]

Filmed in Paris, this engrossing tale is essentially an apologia for Françoise Gilot, who was Pablo Picasso's mistress from 1943 to 1953, bore two of his children and was the only one of the many women in his life to leave him, rather than the other way around.

At 1:30:56, and for the next 40 seconds, Pablo Picasso and Françoise Gilot are at a circus and see a woman juggling 4 rings for 5 seconds while standing on a rolling globe, soon followed by a second woman juggling 3 torches for 2 seconds. The second woman then juggles 3 rings for 5 seconds. These two women are Debbie Cusmans and Beth Lawson.
