Taerial She was. A Letter to 3 Wives, Pinky, etc. And lovely to look at.

The Joe E. Lewis character Sinatra plays in this film didn't arouse any empathy or sympathy on my part. He was too sorry for himself and drowned himself in drink despite the wonderful friends and women who loved him and the success he attained. But, thanks to Sinatra's talent and screen presence, the film was worth watching. Thank you for posting it.

The songs didn’t come from the movie. They were already popular and included in the film. Many were songs already in Sinatra’s repertoire.

Frank Sinatra........The Voice....a generation spellbound.........no other singer came close....and an excellent actor...that's all.

Sinatra wasn't acting - he was almost playing himself!

True , he was all but washed up. His beautiful wife, Ava , got him an audition for a part in a war drama movie. He got the part. The movie ; From here to Eternity. He won an Oscar for best supporting. And he was back on top & never left it.

Thank You for posting this fantastic movie, I must have watched it over twenty-five times over the years and I never get tired of it. People don't realize just how great he was as an actor, his timing is perfect in this movie with his one-liners and his movements, and Jeanne Craine is also terrific and she's not hard on the eyes. I was lucky enough to see Frank in concert four times, once in the seventies, twice in the eighties, and again in the nineties, and each time he was excellent but to be honest when I saw him for the last time, it was plain to see that he was getting too old to continue doing concerts but I'll always love Sinatra and his music and talent in everything else. I also need to mention his charities, he gave millions away and asked not to be known for his contributions, he helped many of his friends when they needed it and has many hospital wings named after him because of his generosity to them. There will never be another Sinatra, not even Jr. R.I.P. Frank!

Oh you are spot on. Sinatra is great throughout the film but the way he portrayed the longing and regret listening to Crosby was just magnetic. Elia Kazan said what Sinatra has is beyond talent. He was so right.

Nevr cared for him as as singer, but as an actor with the right material, he was as god as any of his peers.

My mum loved Frank Sinatra and I remember her taking my sister and I to see this film back in the 50s," The Joker Is Wild." I'm 72 now and I remember that song so much that Frank sang,'When Somebody Loves You" It's my fave Sinatra song . I grew up in Ireland filled with good music ,mostly Frank Sinatra's songs ,it was wonderful. Thanks Mum and may God rest your beautiful soul.

Never saw this movie from the top. I'm awestruck at Franky on stage in the opening!!!

Frank is good at playing depressed. Here and young at heart.

I remember this and so many other Sinatra movies that I watched on our little black & white TV from the early/ middle 60's. Frank really was a top notch actor with great range. Dramas, comedies, you name it, Frank Sinatra could do it and do it well.

That's a gutsy movie for Frank to make! What a personality, and what a singer!

I may be sentimental, but I love nothing more than driving down Hwy 1 with Frank on the deck of my Mustang.

I love the script, the acting, the songs...everything. Enjoyed it immensely.

Thank you for the music, Mr. 'Ol Blue Eyes....Chairman of The Board....Frank Sinatra!! His recordings will still go on forever after his death in 1998 at the age of 82.

In addition to his fabulous voice and self-assured stage presence, Sinatra always had/has the best backup orchestrations and musicians. Also, he should be more talked-about/respected as an actor. This movie is a real classic in every way; supporting actors; lighting, sets, cinematography, music. Thank you Tim Hansen; you're a man of good taste.

I just watched the 1st 5 mins of this and got myself so elevated with the song "'Now it's your turn to cry over me"" that I have decided ti stop watching for the moment until i resume a bit later to digest it so far.

I have seen Sinatrra's "Pal Joey" several times but this now I must say is the VERY FIRST time I've seen this movie. Wit h all of the beautiful songs that Sinatra sings!

mr sinatra had just enough talent to rock everything he did

This was 1957. Did you know by 1952 his career was already washed up and finished? True. Thats when he went to work, when he had hit bottom. Never said no, never gave up, and this movie proves in acting and singing he really did have the chops after all. RIP and thank you for decades of incredible gifts. America wouldnt be the same without you. All the Way is maybe my fav song of all time. Always wanted it for my wedding.

I was surprised myself when I read his history. He had mild success prior to that time and then he declined and by 1952 nobody was interested in him. If I remember right he was also flat broke. But he wouldnt give up and through high pressure by people willing to help him he began to record again. He was not always popular as we all think. He forced himself on the industry until there was acceptance. The analogy in modern times is Ellen DeGeneres who got sacked when she announced she was gay but refused to be fired and fought back, eventually getting her show and pushed on with the show no matter what people thought or wanted.

Sinatra had a slump in his career but he came back stronger than ever! His career was NEVER "washed up and finished," he just hit a small bump in the road, a long long road that he came back to, bigger than ever, and lasted for many more years, until HE decided it was time to quit, not due to his voice, but because he was forgetting lyrics. He was the best, always was, now, and no one will ever compare to him again.

Sinatra the actor between total misery and bliss - that makes him special - great range. The guy has dialogue lines with girls that bust 50 years of Hollywood!

FANTASTIC THANK GOD , GREAT MOVIE

Definitely an "Oldie But Goodie"!!! Thanks Tim Hansen. I thoroughly enjoyed the upload..... for the umpteenth time in 50+ years!! :-)

Frank Sinatra is one guy who made very famous movies at the time of his career and by far the Movies he was well in were Some came running Guys and Dolls The Joker is Wild and Pal Joey Sinatra was a misunderstood Actor and Singer He was rough around the edges but what a talent he was. I would Say i'm a little like him in many ways but this movie really made me understand How great Frank was and how gifted and talented he really was special Like Elvis and Bing and the Beatles. That's why we Say in the history of Entertainment We went from the 20s of Bing Crosby The Early 50's and Late 60s Frank Sinatra Then The Late 60s with Elvis and The Beatles. Nobody can ever duplicate ever that's why people want to be them because you will never see another Frank Sinatra ever not in my Lifetime. What a Talented Performer he really was and will never see again.

Great film and another oscar performance by Frank

Thx. For uploading . Unforgettable..

Greatest movie I've ever seen

They say as you get older you appreciate the finer things in life. The trees the flowers,life. At 76 this must be why I'm re-discovering Frank. Interesting that the doctor warned Lewis about the drinking but not the smoking. One would think that would be worse for his voice.

Joe he always had to Joke & then leave everyone & go!! 😀☹ Excellent movie!👍👏👏👏

Frank Sinatra - the best. Love his voice and his Oscar winning performance in "From here to eternity." Thankyou for posting this film. Xx

Yeah Franks voice and timing are great, not just his singing I think he was a great Actor also. love the old films

Frank is so.....GREAT-couldn't have been better GREAT that, it was hard to focus on the other exemplary actors who supported him. Jeanne Crain was so believable as a woman with the world at her feet but couldn't ignore her love for a very flawed man; Beverly Gilbert as "Cassie" gave a very layered performance and one could really believe she and her husband were genuinely an excellent match. Mitzi Gaynor was given 2nd billing- I'm not sure why, except she was a Hollywood darling at the time...she was certainly beautiful, charming and a lovely dancer, but didn't have the acting chops of the other actresses (IMHO!) But the really under-rated performance (to me) was Eddie Albert....the man had quite a resume as an actor and yet (similarly to the multi-talented Buddy Ebsen) will sadly be remembered for "Green Acres" the way Ebsen was for "The Beverly Hillbillies" Thank you for the opportunity to share my thoughts on this excellent screen gem that seems to be hiding in plain sight!

The Club owner who put the hit on Joe E. Lewis was one of Al Capone's lieutenants. Also one of the thugs who beat him was Sam Giancana who latter became Boss of the Chicago Outfit. Capone gave Joe $10,000 to recover. Just some info for people who like a little history. Also it is rumored that Tony Spilotro the guy Joe Pesci played in Casino killed Giancana.

After watching this wonderful film, I have decided to drop a message here for the future generations. Mr. Sinatra was a great singer and an actor. His acting in this one is outstanding. Also, a round of applause for Mitzi.

Terrific movie,with Sinatra at the peak of his powers. He had it all, great singer, undervalued as an actor,and he could deliver one liners like no one else.

I don't know I love young Mr. Sinatra in the films of the 40s - I don't know there's some kind of joy there. You know he reminds me of Shaun Evans in Endeavour.

One of the best movies ever made. Sinatra deserved an Oscar for both singing and acting. The tearjerker is All the Way, gets me every time. Sinatra was the best, not even close. Unfortunately nowadays music has become shit: Katy Perry, Ke$ha, Eminem, Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, Iggy Azalea, Cardi B, Rick Ross, Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Drake, Meek Mill, Big Sean, Nicki Minaj, Wiz Khalifa, Kid Cudi, A$AP Ferg, A$AP Rocky, Fetty Wap, Charli XCX, Taylor Swift, Meghan Trainor, Jason Derulo, One Direction, and Maroon 5. Time to trade those "artists" for the real artists of music: Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Frank Sinatra, Miles Davis, Louis Armstrong, Louis Prima, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr, Bing Crosby, Elvis Presley, Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimi Hendrix, and Frank Zappa.
