- The 'China Boy' sequence from the 1932 short film Pie, Pie, Blackbird featuring the brilliant dancing skills of the Nicholas Brothers alongside Eubie Blake and his Orchestra.
The Nicholas Brothers turn 'China Boy' into a challenge dance, setting the pie on fire with their explosive tap and dancing everybody to their death!
For an excellent discussion of the significance of this routine see Constance Valis Hill's book Brotherhood in Rhythm: The Jazz Tap Dancing of the Nicholas Brothers.
This short film was included in the 1993 Channel 4 series The Jazz Package, a ten-part series featuring footage of jazz musicians from the 1930s and 1940s.
