| Description: | HIGH NOTES Great film of a jazz band who play on the wings of an aircraft in flight. "And the higher the better, these daredevil jazz musicians say, who insist upon thrills accompanying their syncopations". Musicians (sax, trumpet, trombone, banjo) playing and dancing beside airplane. They start to climb up. Air to air shot close to other plane, showing one wing where saxophonist stands playing while the banjo player climbs down and hangs upside down below wing. Wider shot of whole plane w/ 2 musician-stuntsmen standing on wings and 2 others hanging upside down. Aerial shot looking down at airplane coming in to land with the saxaphonist & trombonist still standing on wings playing their instruments. As plane taxis past can see that by now the other two are in seats. Tricks, dangerous, crazy, wacky, balance, aviation | |
