    Okay to the obvious one since you show a clip from his first movie.That would be none other than Bruce Cabot who died on this day in 1972. But the other is not so easy for me.–A. R.

    How about David Bruce as the other Bruce? I then googled Bruce Cabot, David Bruce, and May 3 and discovered that both Bruce Cabot and David Bruce died on May 3. There’s a coincidence, and how on earth you found that, Tim, is beyond me!

      The song is Errol Flynn, by Amanda McBroom, who is David Bruce’s daughter.
