Caldonia (1945)

Directed by William Forest Crouch

Overview

Louis Jordan, with his band, sings and performs the title song, “Caldonia,”, and “Honey Child,” “Tillie” and ‘Buzz Me”, wowing the jitter-buggers, zoot suits and bobby-soxers of the mid-1940s, all built around a wisp of a plot dealing with the difficulties of production in Harlem.

Length 18 minutes
