The filmclips listed here are primarily the rare and obscure movies in which you can see early footage of Shorty George Snowden and Whitey's Lindy Hoppers, originators of the Lindy Hop at the Savoy Ballroom in Harlem. Day at the Races and Hellzapoppin' are the only major Hollywood films in which these dancers appeared, until recent cameo shots of Frankie Manning and Norma Miller in Malcolm X and Stompin' at the Savoy.
