Minstrel Banjo

For enthusiasts of early banjo

Anybody seen it? I'd never heard of it, but it is mentioned in Karen Linn's That Half-Barbaric Twang. Is it at all accurate (doesn't look like it from the trailer) and, more importantly, is there any banjo in it?

You can watch the trailer here, including Bing Crosby in blackface:

I'm guessing this hasn't been shown on TV in a while, for good reason.
