     I don't know.
     Dead of Night (1945)

And what was the name of the Dick Van Dyke movie where a guy offered the entire town a million dollars if they would all quit smoking i think it was called "Cold Turkey" but i'm not sure.

      Cold Turkey (1971)
      http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066927/combined    

And was Lara's mother in "Doctor Zhivago" having a drug overdose
     
     I think so but won't guarantee it.

and what were they doing in "To Sir With Love" that made Mr.Poitier so angry

    Sorry but I don't know
    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062376/combined           

and how did the rabbits[sic] get so big in "Night of the Lepus"

    Bennett immediately begins injecting rabbits with hormones and genetically mutated blood in an effort to develop a method of disrupting rabbit reproduction. One of the test subjects escapes, resulting in a race of bloodthirsty, wolf-sized, man-, horse-, and cow-eating bunnies.
