Tuners in movies

[Michel Lachance]

In the "Eddie Duchin Story" movie (I think), there is a scene where we can 
see (and hear...) a tuner tuning a piano.  I remember he had a peculiar way 
to tune.  He started tuning a single note with no reference (like if he were 
using RCT...), played a major chord with the note as a test, then move to 
another note, another chord, etc.

I always wondered if the guy was just an actor or a wonderfeul perfect 
pitcher.
