Bing Sings--"Ain't Got A Dime To My Name (Ho-Hum)" from Road To Morocco...Here's a clip:
Your thread, Polecat.

"Jack The Ripper" (1959)?
Here's a trailer:

Here's one that's a little older:
" There's nothing quite as grotesque as a man at his desk
Looking outside at the sun;
Shirts made of silk and a diet of milk,
Maybe he thinks he has fun.
I've got the vagabond itch,
Guess I'll never get rich, Ho-Hum..."
Singer and movie?

I was thinking of "Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde"...

Correct...Charlie Chaplin supposedly originated the "mirror scene" in "The Floorwalker"(1916) long before Harpo used it in "Duck Soup"(1933).
But here's the mother of all mirror scenes, one of the best, from "Seven Years Bad Luck"(1921).... twelve years before Duck Soup and the rest of them:
Your thread, musical.

Correct. I thought that title was funnier...Can you imagine Sister Maria howling at the moon and singing while turning into wolfwoman ?...Your thread, Gip.

No...The other way around.

Thanks...I would have answere flying cars, but the only unusual car scene I remember in "Mad,Mad World" was when Phil Silvers' car sank in the river..
Next, an easy one:
1) The Floorwalker (1916)
2) Lonesome Ghosts (Disney 1937)
3) Idle Roomers (1944)
4) The Pink Panther (1963)

Yes. That was the opening scene in "Destry", the Audie Murphy version from the fifties...Your thread.

Looks like Cary Grant's car in "TOPPER"....before it hit the tree.

I like the stooges and I have their complete set of shorts which I bought from Amazon...
Next:
This musician, who couldn't read music, composed a song while looking out an airplane window on a flight to the west coast. The song was later used as the theme music in a movie from the seventies.
Name the song, the musician, and the movie...

On October 12, 1949, the Three Stooges made a pilot film at ABC for what was to be a weekly television comedy show called "Jerks Of All Trades". One of the theme songs was "Crazy People", a segment of which can be heard after Larry introduces himself. Unfortunately, the show never aired because Columbia Pictures threatened them with a lawsuit, thinking the show might compete with their movie shorts.
Here's "Crazy People" by the Boswell Sisters:
Here's part 1 and 2 of the unaired pilot for "Jerks Of All Trade". You can barely recognize the song after Larry introduces himself. In part 2, that's Joe Kearns, Mr. Wilson from "Dennis The Menace", trying to sell the stooges a pressure cooker....

Yes. "Escape From Fort Bravo", with William Holden and Eleanor Parker, is the answer...Your turn, Six. I'm sure you can pick a nice pre-1970s movie...
-
Must be "The Bat" (1926) and "The Bat Whispers"(1930), both directed by Roland West and adapted from the classic novel, "The Bat" , by Mary Roberts Rhinehart....I read her novel, "The Afterhouse", when I was in high school. It has pretty much the same plot, except the killer has an axe and the story happens on a ship...

That's right, Kid...Your exorcism now...
-
Sorry, No...The lead actor was an Oscar winner, the leading lady was a major actress in the fifties, and the convicts were escaped Confederate soldiers...

Maybe George Brent ?
