But worse than that, she was in the midst of a devastating divorce from first husband 'Tommy Sands' while shooting the picture, later saying that it was a good time for all the fellas on the set but she herself was extremely troubled. more
Quotes:
Shad Nathan: You're emotionally upset, have a glass of water.

I DIG SINATRA, BUT THIS FILM'S A DUD, 8 February 1999
4/10
Author: Coleen Toews (zombee@primenet.com) from near Washington D.C.

I'VE SEEN MOST OF THE FILMS STARRING OR CO-STARRING FRANK SINATRA - SOME OF THEM ARE TOTAL FILM CLASSICS, MANY ARE GREAT, MOST ARE ENTERTAINING, BUT THIS ONE IS A DUD. FRANK AND PAL, DEAN MARTIN, SEEM TO HAVE BEEN MORE INTERESTED IN BOOZING THAN ACTING, BECAUSE THEY SEEM BARELY AWAKE. NANCY SINATRA DOES A GOOD JOB, BUT EVERYONE ELSE IS A DRAG. THIS IS A SHAME, BECAUSE THE CAST IS MADE UP OF SUPER-TALENTED PEOPLE WHO EITHER OVER-ACT, OR ARE IN A DAZE (SINATRA & DEAN). EVEN THE RAT-PACK FILMS ARE MORE ENTERTAINING THAN THIS ONE.
