Juggling in Movies

The Stick Up (1977)

[David Soul, Pamela McMyler, Johnny Wade, Michael Balfour]

Duke Turnbeau (David Soul) has come to England in the 1930s as a way to improve his fortunes. For some reason, he believes that his larcenous ways will bring him prosperity in the country that at one time or another has had rulership over a large portion of the globe. While there, he meets Rosie McCratchit (Pamela McMyler), a lovely Irish gal who could do with some improvement in her fortunes as well. Together, they have a series of legal, quasi-legal and definitely illegal adventures, including Duke's cow-roping and Rosie's response to the mud-wrestling challenge of the Amazon Lady, as well as an attempted armored-car robbery.

At 1:02:26, and for 75 seconds, we see 3 brief juggling scenes, starting with someone making the final throw and catch of a 3 ball juggle. About 20 seconds later someone is juggling 3 torches for about 20 seconds, and 10 seconds after that is a 3 club juggler for about 20 seconds.
