One of the best musical numbers from any of my favorite musicals. I hope you can appreciate the brilliance of it too! Compliments of Frank (quite the youngster) and his old hero Bing--High Society.
I've heard that drunkenness is one of the toughest theatrics to pull off as an actor. I'd say Frank's got it in the bag... Sometimes it pays to study the part!
Hey there. I love your blog. Thanks for the comments on mine. I do hope you stop in more. I love hearing from people. I did add your blog to my blogroll. Great clip here. I would love to have chilled out with Frank and Bing. Have a cool & swingin' weekend. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteSwill party indeed!
ReplyDeleteLove you Windy. Come to Tucson soon!
I'd have to agree, very smooth. and was he really acting the part, I'm sure a few drinks before "action" we're allowed in those days...?
ReplyDeleteVery few people can pull the buzzed acting off..but Sinatra was right on..not overboard and not too subtle that you had to sit there and wonder what was wrong with him. Don't you wish you were at the party wearing those uncomfortable dresses and danicng your little heart out! Too bad those parties and dresses don't exist in today's society...maybe you should put a foraml danicng party together Wendy :o)
ReplyDeleteI ahve never seen a Sinatra performance, but he is a very eloquent actor. He is one of the few I think that can pull of acts like this one.
