How many movies have you not seen? Just this past month I watched "Here Is My Heart" for the first time, but here are the Bing movies that I have never seen completely (from beginning to end):
1. Too Much Harmony
2. Anything Goes (1936)
3. Paris Honeymoon
4. Out Of This World - Bing's voice was just used
5. Say One For Me

The only of his lead starring role movies I haven’t seen is Say One For Me, every other of his starring movies I’ve seen.

Back in the 90's, I got all Bing's old 30's movies from a old fan who had recorded them on to tape. The only ones you could find on VHS in the store at that time was Going Hollywood, We're Not Dressing and a few others. Anyway, I love those 30's films. Love the songs, Bing so young and Handsome! And Bing's voice! Out of all Bing's movies the only ones I can't watch are Say One for Me and High Time! Don't like those 2! I finally got Stagecoach on Blu Ray. The last blu ray one I needed. I really enjoyed it! The picture and sound are so much better!

Compared to years gone by, it’s relatively easy to have seen most of Bing’s movies these days. Still, some have eluded me…
I don’t ever recall seeing 1938’s ‘Doctor Rhythm’, and have also never seen ‘Say One for Me’.
The 1967 made for TV movie, ‘The Demon Under the Bed’ is another. Actually, I think only those who watched when it originally aired will ever have seen it!
And finally, there’s ‘Cinerama’s Russian Adventure’, narrated by Bing in 1966. There’s a trailer for it on youtube

I look forward to discovering more Bing movies others haven’t seen…

That's an interesting question, one which I'd not thought about before. The only feature film in which Bing had a significant part which I've not seen is Say One For Me. I don't know why I missed it because it was shown on TV in Australia six times from 1968 to 1979. My research suggests that several were never shown on free-to-air TV here: King of Jazz, Too Much Harmony, Going Hollywood and Two for Tonight.

It would be easier to compile a list of the ones I have been able to find and watch!

I lucked out and a collector sent me most of the movies on DVD. My problem is those copies don't work in all the DVD players now.
