Clicking on the picture enlarges it.  It looked like Ellington to me.

Seems to me Duke's appearance in the film is more by inference than direct
identification. I can't make hide nor hair out of the guy at the piano -
it's like searching for the gunman hidden in the trees on the grassy knoll.
You want to see him, so you do. Anyone better able to identify Duke here?
I'm not convinced.

The Library of Congress today announced the discovery of an appearance by
Duke Ellington and the Washingtonians in a 1925 silent film, "Headlines."
Here's a link to the Library of Congress blog with a clip of the film:

Happy Birthday Duke!
