"My kind of town, Chicago is...." The last film venture by the Rat Pack finds Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis Jr. in an update of the Robin Hood legend, set in Chi-town in 1928. The boys play gangsters who become Jazz Age Merry Men; Bing Crosby is their eloquent spokesman. As usual, women are in short supply within the featured cast, but the film is colorful enough anyway with its period trappings. By the time this movie was released in 1964, the Zeitgeist was already shifting toward the Beatles, and Frank, Dean, and Sammy looked like your father's entertainment. But while this film is no knockout, director Gordon Douglas (Young at Heart) makes it a pleasant enough way to say good-bye to the Rat Pack's life together on film. --Tom Keogh
Product Description
In prohibition-era Chicago the corrupt sheriff and Guy Gisborne a south-side racketeer knock off the boss Big Jim. Everyone falls in line behind Guy except Robbo who controls the north side. Although he's outgunned Robbo wants to keep his own territory. A pool-playing dude from Indiana and the director of a boys' orphanage join forces with Robbo; and when he gives some money to the orphanage he becomes the toast of the town as a hood like Robin Hood. Meanwhile Guy schemes to get rid of Robbo and Big Jim's heretofore unknown daughter Marian appears and goes from man to man trying to find an ally in her quest to run the whole show. Can Robbo hold things together?Running Time: 124 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY/CLASSICS UPC: 883929007578 Manufacturer No: 1000036692
