sorry, forgot this'n

Okay, this hasn't been made into a movie yet, but it is from an award-winning musical:
"I happened to notice there wasn't a lot of crying
I even heard a snigger from the back
Oh, it really is a shame
How I start to feel the same
How many are there left to bury after what's-his-name?"-song, play?

Close enough, starlite...Nice work

(and BTW, a very funny film)
the title on the marquee was The White Rajah, a script written by Errol Flynn.
Lloyd Bacon, the director, came across the script while looking for a title for Boy Meets Girl's fictional film premiere. Flynn was reportedly not amused.
thanks
