Juggling in Movies
Badlands of Dakota (1941)
[Robert Stack, Ann Rutherford, Richard Dix, Frances Farmer]
Indian raids are being perpetrated by an outlaw gang in disguise.
The Johnson Brothers, Harry Johnson and Harry Johnson Jr., juggle
clubs three times in this movie.
At 02:50, they are seen
juggling 3 clubs each
for nearly 30 seconds, while marching in a parade.
At 04:19, Andy Devine introduces them as the "Johnson Brothers" as a
preview of their act in the Bella Union saloon, and they
pass 6 clubs
for about 4 seconds.
At 49:17, they are seen doing their
club passing routine
on the saloon stage, when Lon Chaney Jr., as bad guy Jack McCall, uses
his handgun to shoot the clubs as they fly between the jugglers, until
Robert Stack, as Marshall Jim Holliday, stops him.
