[Carl's mother tells him, "You should give up music."]

[Professor Grieg in his studio, where nobody uses a shoulder rest.]

["My dog ate the top half of my music, so I could only play what was on the bottom of the page."]

[Carl plays the Bach Chaccone.]

[Professor Grieg and Carl find out that they are grandfather and grandson.]

[The film ends with a triumphant concert.]
The violinists in this movie (as well as the other musicians) do their own stunts. Young Carl is played by Lester Lee, which might have been the stage name for Ron Carver (but I can't find out anything about a violinist named Ron Carver).



[The other musicians in the building all unwittingly jam together (in separate studios) on "Melody in F."]
What are you waiting for? You can see the whole movie on line!

I love the image of someone sticking chewing gum on the back of a violin! And the dog eating only the top half of the music? That belongs in a registry of student excuses somewhere.
What a fine old gem you've found here!
Love your writing! I came across it while searching for the real identity of the young violinist.
Love your writing! I came across your blog while searching for the identity of the child violinist.
Lovely "clumsy" film, too!
Amazing. Thank you for this Article.
