 VH1.com : Bert Kalmar : Biography
Together Kalmar and Ruby authored several Broadway shows and helped bring some fairly illustrious musical talent to the fore through them, but it was as songwriters that they made their biggest mark.
Hollywood beckoned with the advent of talking pictures and the musical film and in 1930, Kalmar and Ruby took their show on the road, to RKO, where they were engaged to write songs for the comedy team of Bert Wheeler and Robert Woolsey.
By the end of the 1920s and the dawn of the 1930s, their songs had also been picked up by members of the jazz community, including Henry "Red" Allen, and it seemed that Kalmar and Ruby were nearing the top of their profession.

Ruby also acted from time to time in the '50s, appearing as himelf in Angels in the Outfield (1951) and guesting as a decidedly semitic Indian chief in the Irwin Allen all-star farrago The Story of Mankind (1957).

Tired of promoting the works of others, Ruby began writing his own songs in collaboration with vaudeville hoofer Bert Kalmar.

A brisk, enjoyable Fred Astaire flick, which features Fred and Red Skelton as the prolific Depression-era songwriting team of Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby, who wrote standards such as "Whose Sorry Now," "Nevertheless," and "I Wanna Be Loved By You," known for its "boop-oop-a-doop" refrain, sung by squeeky-voiced Helen Kane.
Nevertheless, the movie was good and I enjoyed it, but if you want to see it because you look forward to lots and lots of good dancing with Fred and Vera-Ellen then you might be slighty dissapointed like I was.

Despite his claims that he knew nothing of music, and, in fact, hated it in the theatre, Kaufman collaborated on many musicals.
Although Kaufman skewered the film industry in his plays and prose pieces, he did occasional work for Hollywood, most significantly as a writer of A Night at the Opera for the Marx Brothers.
His most successful include The Cocoanuts, written with Irving Berlin for the Marx Brothers, Animal Crackers, also written for the Marx Brothers, with Morrie Ryskind, Bert Kalmar, and Harry Ruby, Of Thee I Sing (Pulitzer Prize 1931), and Let 'Em Eat Cake which had incarnations with Ryskind, Ira Gershwin, and George Gershwin.

 Three Little Words / Yolanda And The Thief - Music from the Movies
In 1950, however, a modest (for MGM) little musical called Three Little Words broke the pattern and resulted in what Rhino producer George Feltenstein calls “the best all-around composer biopic.” The subjects were a lesser-known team who nonetheless had written a number of 1920s standards that remained viable, indeed lucrative, well into the 1950s.
Fred Astaire plays composer Harry Ruby and Red Skelton is Bert Kalmar, a lyricist with a passion for magic that leads to some amusing slapstick business in the film.
