Juggling in Movies
That's My Gal (1947)
[Lynne Roberts, Donald Barry, Pinky Lee, Frank Jenks, Edward Gargan]
Two sharpie promoters (Don Barry and Frank Jenks) put on a show they believe is so bad it will not play more than one day and they therefore will not have to pay the long list of investors, i.e., suckers and buyers. But one of the investors dies intestate and his interests pass to the state. The governor's secretary (Lynne Roberts) engages new talent (the Four Step Brothers, Guadalajara Trio, St. Clair & Vilvoa, Dolores and Don Graham, et al) and a new orchestra (Jan Savitt), in order to make the show successful and a profitable investment for the state. Barry, who has fallen in love with the first-billed Roberts, reforms and buys up the surplus stock.
The juggling act in the show was performed by the Johnson Brothers.
