The film "Carmen Jones"

[Hardbopjazz]

Anyone here see the film "Carmen Jones" from 1954? What was Max Roach and Clifford Brown's part in this movie? Reading a blog it states that both Roach and Brown are in this movie. It can't be with them playing, since there is only one known 3 minute film of Clifford Brown on the Soupy Sales show.

MAx has a feature drum solo. I don't remember Clifford.

in the movie that is... but it's been a while.

The reason I ask, in the Clifford Brown's appearance on the Soupy Sales show, Soupy mentions to the audience that "Clifford and Max appear in the new movie Carmen Jones." I have not seen this movie and wondered if Clifford is actually on screen or just heard playing the trumpet. I will need to find this movie so I can watch and see for myself. The Soupy 3 minute clip I thought was the only known film of Clifford Brown.
