Django Reinhardt Here's Django Reinhardt in a short film from 1938-1939. Forget the short clips from this (More) Here's Django Reinhardt in a short film from 1938-1939. Forget the short clips from this movie---here's the whole thing, all 6 minutes, putting the scenes with Django and the QHCF in context. This short film was made about 1938-1939 as an advertisement for Django's brand of music before a tour of Great Britain to educate music-hall audiences on what jazz was all about. In those days, many people thought improvisations were due to bad musicianship---musicians who culdn't play in tune! This film was "lost"---even forgotten---for decades until a French fan of cartoons with jazz soundtracks found it in a brocante junkshop in a march aux puces in a film can simply marked "Jazz Hot"; the price was right, so he bought it, and voil, here's the film! If you're interested in more on Django and Gypsy jazz, check out my biography DJANGO: THE LIFE & MUSIC OF A GYPSY LEGEND and DJANGO REINHARDT & THE ILLUSTRATED HISTORY OF GYPSY JAZZ, both available via http://www.amazon.com/.
