Supposedly based on fact, the story centers on the collision of personalities between the Rat Pack’s leader, Frank Sinatra, and the Kennedy clan. In the story, Frank Sinatra so admires Senator Jack Kennedy that he’ll do anything to help him be elected President. When it involves the dirty and unethical dealings of Joe Sr., Frank’s reluctant, but game. Frank manipulates friends, brings in the Mafiosi, dumps on the downtrodden. So when Kennedy is elected what’s Frank get? The shaft.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text show-more__control\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow much of the story is true? Who knows? But it does make for good entertainment, bringing along Marilyn Monroe, Bobby Kennedy, Joe DiMaggio and other period luminaries. The story is moved along by some excellent acting especially Don Cheadle as the tortured Sammy Davis Jr, Ray Liotta as Frank Sinatra and Joe Montegna as Dean Martin. It may twist the truth, but it’s decent entertainment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFascinating look at the Sixties.\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"display-name-date\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"display-name-date\"\u003eMost of us of a certain age will remember the events in this movie as newspaper headlines. I have no idea how much fictionalisation there is but the film does capture the mood of the time and the sleazy blend of Las Vegas show business, gangsterism and American politics. There is no attempt to get look alikes for the main roles but their personalities are suggested rather cleverly. In the smaller roles I thought Dan O’Herlihy was a standout as the evil, conniving Joe Kennedy. The musical numbers are well integrated into the plot and nicely done.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"FilmClassicsonDVD","offers":[{"title":"DOWNLOAD","offer_id":51498501701919,"sku":"rapac-2","price":10.94,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"DVD","offer_id":51498501734687,"sku":"rapac-1","price":12.94,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/0788\/5087\/files\/The-Rat-Pack-rareandcollectibledvds-244.jpg?v=1767246722","url":"https:\/\/filmclassicsondvd.com\/products\/the-rat-pack","provider":"FilmClassicsonDVD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
