Note: I didn’t find a trailer for the film. Above is a clip from the movie. July Jones’ character is listed as “Cornbread” Green but in the film, Spencer Williams initially refers to him July and Mr. Jones. The Jitterbug Johnnies are the dancers in the film. I am still working on finding an actual release date for this film.
