Ragtime pianist, collector, and historian Johnny Maddox described this scene to me as one of the "most authentic cake walks I've ever seen." The clip is from the classic 1936 movie San Francisco, starring Clark Gable and Jeanette MacDonald. It features Abe Holzmann's hit "Smoky Mokes" and Kerry Mills's famous "At a Georgia Camp Meeting" as background music, which almost perfectly fit the period of the film, 1906. I let the scene continue until the music stops.
