MOVIE: Ocean’s 11

July 24, 2015 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

11Our final Frank Sinatra film is OCEAN’S 11.  Nothing against Clooney and Pitt, but they’ve got nothing on these guys.  Sinatra, Dino, Sammy – they were the originals.  They were the Rat Pack, and this is the ultimate Rat Pack movie.  During a Los Angeles Christmas, a group of 82nd Airborne vets assembles under the leadership of gamblin’ man Danny Ocean (Frank Sinatra) to rip off five Las Vegas casinos just after the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Day. Playboy Jimmy Foster (Peter Lawford) joins in the scheme because he’s sick of needing his oft-married mother’s money.  Ocean’s own wife, Beatrice (Angie Dickinson), doesn’t think much of her husband’s promise of a big score to come, but her quiet protests don’t dissuade him. With Las Vegas garbage man and fellow vet Josh Howard (Sammy Davis Jr.) and several casino employees among their number, the titular band of thieves have just a few days to get ready for their caper.
