I sometimes get invitations to be fourth or fifth rate actor in the background for movies or TV series and did some commercials as musician.Have a pretty large film collection on DVD. I could recommend :
- the legend of 1900 ( lots of very nice piano playing)- the Cotton Club (Ellingtonia of course, the great The Mooche for example)- Pete Kelly's Blues- The Aviator (with Vince Giordano's Nighthawks)- West Side Story (of course no traditional jazz, but great music anyway)- Lawrence of Arabia (no jazz at all, but love that music)
Just to mention a few.
Kind regards,
Bert Brandsma

this link has been about. Guess I need to see more movies and I would if I
knew they were like this one.

Hello
Bill,
You have to be in a certain mood to appreciate this film. When my
wife was 8 months pregnant and almost could do nothing anymore she had so much
fun watching it that it was a pleasure watching her!
The scenes with the
player piano are in the first movie. After about 43 minutes. Nielsen is
secretly in the office of the enemy. First he pushes a button at random and
the player piano starts. He stops it after a few seconds. Then he puts by
accidents a piece of paper on fire, everything starts to burn, panic, panic
and accidently he pushes the player piano button again. Everything goes wrong
now. Nielsen drops the precious vases, but the funny part is that they fall in
time with the music. You hear the sound of breaking glass but if you listen
closely you also hear two different pitched crash cymbals at the same time.
like a circus drummer.
