Round 10: Tossup 11

Note to players: We’re looking for the names of the individual performers, not a type of performer. An Irving Berlin musical written for these performers had its song “A Little Bungalow” replaced with “When My Dreams Come True” for the film version. A stage musical and three films for these performers had songs written by the team of Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby. One of these performers liked to shape his right hand like a gun and shoot out to hit a high note with his index finger, as seen in onscreen piano performances of “Silver Threads among the Gold” and “All I Do Is Dream of You.” One of these performers sings the line “Did someone call me Schnorrer?” in a song (-5[1])that hails their character as an African explorer. (-5[1])A 1930 film starring these performers (10[1])includes the songs “Hello I Must Be Going” and “Hooray (-5[1])for Captain Spaulding.” (10[1])For 10 points, name these lead performers in the films Animal (-5[1])Crackers and (10[1])Duck (10[1]-5[1])Soup.
