Cheadle manages to recoup his character's dignity, but the scene leaves a lingering huh? sensation.

It's also foolish in a rather spectacular way. The oddest scene in the film is a fantasy sequence in which Davis dances and sings 'I've Got You Under My Skin' to a mob of brown- shirted demonstrators outside his hotel room.Д¬headle projects Davis onto the street and does the number in front of a big neon 'N- ' sign, adorned with Stars of David. Also, his interracial love affair and eventual marriage to the Swedish actress May Britt brings him heaps of unwanted controversy. Davis patiently endures Sinatra's stage antics, which reduce Davis to little- black-mascot status. So why isn't San Francisco Bay Area air quality better?

Nobody expected Sensorio Field of Light in Paso Robles to become a global sensation.

Dan Snyder's pettiness reportedly prevented 49ers, Kyle Shanahan from trading a massive haul for Kirk Cousins.

TodayвЂ™s Disneyland is a price gouge, not a magical experience.

Suddenly Davis is configured as the most tragic rat of all, unless you count Sinatra finally getting jilted by the Kennedy clan. And Don Cheadle, a rising star who is cast as Sammy Davis Jr., just about sneaks off with the movie. Joey Bishop (Bobby Slayton) is mainly a nonpresence. I hate it when you squirm.')Дean Martin is the sensible cynic here, careful not to run afoul of anyone. (Sinatra to Lawford: 'Don't squirm, Peter. He comes across as a spineless errand boy who's deathly afraid of all his patrons. The Kennedys and the mob communicate through the Rat Pack.ДЄll of this makes Kennedy in-law and ex officio Rat Packer Peter Lawford (Angus Macfadyen) miserable. Kennedy provides the giddy Sinatra with a bit of presidential panache. Sinatra provides Jack Kennedy (William Petersen) his women. It's the Rat Pack, the Kennedys and the Mafia again, with the usual side dish of Marilyn Monroe ( Barbara Niven). Anyway, director Rob Cohen and screenwriter Kario Salem see their film as a tragedy. So the 'Rat Pack' actors can only pretend to have fun the real thing is probably the stuff of cultural archaeology. And if you live in a time when time is money, you have a hard time imagining a time when time was merely time. Today it would be bogged down by worrisome business calls on the boys' cell phones, fear of the diseases that go along with the ring-a-ding and calorie counting at the clambake, whatever a Rat Pack clambake may have been.Д«esides, you can't have a productive business meeting with a hangover. It'll be a gas.'ДЄnd it would be a gas - for them, back then. We'll grab some ring-a-ding, and we'll take the chopper to the Springs for a midmorning clambake, and I'll have you back to the Oasis by show time. We take the plane, we catch Sammy's show. Sinatra ( Ray Liotta) pins Martin ( Joe Mantegna) on the phone and says, 'Listen, Dean, I got it all planned out.

Another is changing your name and fleeing the country, but you do you, Liotta.But breezy, boozy fun is not a natural quality in the 1990s. вЂњOh, you could do this one, but you couldnвЂ™t do the one that we wanted you to?вЂќ Liotta told Leno while laughing, which is one way to react to a family with rumored mob ties sending you a decapitated horse head. And, you know, a horseвЂ™s head means youвЂ™re toast.вЂќДЄfter Liotta discovered that it was SinatraвЂ™s daughters, Tina and Nancy, who sent the fake horse head, he definitely understood the message being sent. вЂњObviously it wasnвЂ™t a real one, but it was a horseвЂ™s head.

вЂњWe were doing the movie and I got delivered a horseвЂ™s head,вЂќ he said. However, he ended up agreeing to play OlвЂ™ Blue Eyes in The Rat Pack, and well, letвЂ™s just say FrankвЂ™s daughters decided to express their displeasure. вЂњThe daughters, they wanted me to do a miniseries when they were doing a miniseries about it and I just felt too uncomfortable,вЂќ Liotta said. While stopping by Jay LenoвЂ™s Garage, Liotta revealed that prior to the HBO film, SinatraвЂ™s daughters had approached him about starring in a miniseries, which the actor passed on. Back in 1998, Ray Liotta starred as Frank Sinatra in the HBO movie The Rat Pack, and apparently, he received a very The Godfather-esque warning (Sinatra was the basis for the Johnny Fontane character) during the filmвЂ™s production.
