She's Not Bing
Harold Richards and Jeanne Claire perform the song as a duet, while some very pretty girls dance the hula in this soundie.
Soundies were short films, about three minutes in length. The were meant to be played on a machine called a Mills Panoram, a video jukebox that was typically to be found in bars, lounges, and similar venues. You put a dime in and got a performance from the ten on the machine. The movies would be changed weekly, and from 1940 through 1946, Mills and other companies produced more than two thousand soundies.
The best known version of this minor hit was sung by Bing Crosby. This one is all right. The copy I looked at had color added, which made the images murkier.
