Jammin' the Blues. (1944)
This film of top jazz musicians is beautiful to the ears and the eyes. The photographer Gjon Mili, who is responsible for the 1943 LIFE Magazine cover story on Lindy Hop, shot this film as though it were a series of photographs. There are some short scenes with beautifully executed choreographed Lindy Hop.
