In this musical biopic, directed by Charles Vidor, Frank Sinatra stars as nightclub singer Joe E. Lewis, who oses his voice and makes a comeback as a comedian.
Jeanne Crain and Mitzi Gaynor are the two women in his life.
The cast includes Eddie Albert, Beverly Garland, Jackie Coogan, and Sophie Tucker.
The part was tailor-made and the complicated song was deliberately composed as a challenge for Sinatra.
