TV on DVD: Frank Sinatra, Danny Kaye, Don Rickles

FRANK SINATRA: ALL OR NOTHING AT ALL

DOCUMENTARY The crooner, crony and cultural icon is explored by documentarian Alex Gibney, telling his story in Sinatra’s own words and those of family, friends and historians. This HBO-aired history is shaped by the life-charting songs Sinatra chose for his 1971 “retirement” concert (the retreat didn’t last long), with Gibney employing them to interpret aspects of Sinatra’s vibrantly lived life.
