I am not sure of other films, but I just saw Bert Lahr as one of the main characters in the film Always Leave them Laughing. The main characters in the film are Milton Berle and Virginia Mayo, but Lahr is also in the top five characters.

Should the death section reflect "cancer/pneumonia", you'd have to read the Death annotates to even know there was a discrepancy. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/24.182.163.98|24.182.163.98]] ([[User talk:24.182.163.98#top|talk]]) 15:28, 19 December 2016 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

On January 6th, 1963, he appeared as a mystery guest and made reference to the fact that it was his third appearance as a guest. So obviously he appeared on more than just the one occasion that's currently mentioned in the article.
