Our Review of Sinatra
The mini-series was very well done with great acting, writing and producing. It tells the story of a very interesting person. His life was full of twists and turns. Not only was he just a pretty face, but he had real talent -- both with his singing and his acting. The mini-series takes you through his life from his early childhood in New Jersey (Hoboken) through his music and movie careers - and he suceeded in both.
Phillip Casnoff does an outstanding job of portraying Mr. Sinatra (and eerily looks a little like him) and was even nominated for a Golden Globe for his performance. The supporting case is amazing as well -- Olympia Dukakis (Sinatra's mother) is an Oscar winner and Marcia Gay Harden (Ave Gardner) is an Oscar nominee. They were all superb.
The production itself was well done as was the writing. The movie was both entertaining, as well as informative providing glimpses into his life on and off the screen. The soundtrack for the album, of course, is excellent, since the music is from the master himself. For a well done look into Sinatra's life, this DVD is what you have been looking for.
This DVDis highly recommended.

Gain Insight into Ol’ Blue Eyes’ Life While Remembering His Music
On DVD May 13, 2008 from Warner Home Video
Sinatra covers more than 20 years of Sinatra’s life, beginning with his spirited boyhood in Hoboken, NJ, and ending with his 1974 return from retirement. With an uncanny likeness to the legend himself, Phillip Casnoff (“Law & Order: SVU”), won a Golden Globe® nomination for his performance. Oscar® winner Olympia Dukakis (Moonstruck, Steel Magnolias) portrays his mother, Dolly, while Gina Gershon (“Ugly Betty,” Showgirls) plays Sinatra’s wife, Nancy. Oscar®-nominee Marcia Gay Harden (Mystic River, Pollock) plays the luminous Ava Gardner. More than two dozen Sinatra standards grace this lavish production and most are from the original master recordings by the “Chairman of the Board” himself.
“Sinatra is a superb production about an amazingly talented man -- one of our national treasures,” said Rosemary Markson, WHV Vice President, TV Marketing. “This DVD provides a unique look at Sinatra’s life and is an essential addition to any music fan’s collection.”
Songs included on Sinatra are That’s Life, I Can’t Give You Anything But Love, I’ll Never Smile Again, I Fall in Love Too Easily, That Old Black Magic, All Thy Way, It Was A Very Good Year, Come Fly With Me and New York, New York.
Marketing Support Sinatra is timed for release on the 10th Anniversary of his death, at which time the US Postal Service will issue a special commemorative stamp in his honor. The title will also be cross-promoted with other theatrical catalog titles being released by Warner Home Video and a new CD release from Rhino Records.
