Hollywood legends Marlon Brando, Jean Simmons, Frank Sinatra and Vivian Blaine (from the original Broadway cast) are dazzling in this Frank Loesser (How To Succeed Without Really Trying) masterpiece, unleashing a "spectacular, song-and-dance show that's loaded with entertainment" (New York Journal-American). This smash film version of one of Broadway's most popular musicals is guaranteed, rip-roaring "four star entertainment" (New York Daily News). The slickest big-time New York City gamblers, Sky Masterson (Brando) and Nathan Detroit (Sinatra), can't resist making or taking a bet on anything. So when a pretty missionary (Simmons) sets up shop in the neighborhood, Nathan stakes a grand that Sky can't seduce her. But all bets are off when Sky falls madly in love in this romantic musical spectacular that sets the Big Apple afire with excitement! Featuring hits like "Luck Be A Lady" and "A Woman in Love," this classic show-stopper hits a fever pitch, recalling a winsome era of gentleman gangsters and their ladies in an unbelievable, unforgettable "lavish musical loaded with laughs" (The Hollywood Reporter). Approximate Feature Running Time: 2 hours 29 minutes / Color / 1955 / Stereo
