I absolutely love Frank Sinatra. I know many of you classic movie afficionados are probably familiar with his acting work, but there may be a bunch of people out there who primarily know him as a singer! I wanted to host a blogathon on my favorite leading man to celebrate what would have been his 105th birthday!
Please post your entry between December 11th and December 13th!
Rules:
- We are sticking to his movies, both musical and not, to showcase his talent as an actor as well as singer.
- Two posts per topic is allowed.
- No more than 3 posts per person.
- Make sure to follow or subscribe to receive updates!

Sinatra is just the best. I’d love to do a personal tribute to him for Love Letters to Old Hollywood.
Hi Michaela!
Isn’t he though? Awesome! Sounds great. Thanks for joining!
Just ordered a box set of 10 movies so I could get this one. I want to sign on with “The Detective”

Hi Quiggy!
You got it! Thanks for joining. What other movies did you get with the set? Just curious! 🙂
Pride and Passion, Kings Go Forth, Hole in the Head, Can-Can , Manchurian Candidate, Von Ryan’s Express , Cast a Giant Shadow , Tony Rome and Lady in Cement.
Wanted The Detective for a specific reason. No spoilers… have to wait for the review.😁
I’m late to the party, but I’d like to contribute 1965’s “Von Ryan’s Express.”
Hi! Not late at all. This isn’t until December! You got it. Thanks for joining!
Dear Kristen,
I really want to join this blogathon, but I realized it is the same weekend as my Happy Holidays Blogathon, so I have already committed myself to writing about two new Code films this week. However, I thought of a way I can still join. I would love to write about a costume which Frank Sinatra wore in one of his movies. Would that be alright?
Yours Hopefully,
Tiffany Brannan
Sure! 🙂
Hi! This is Heidi from Along the Brandywine and this does look fun…. 🙂 I have and have been wanting to watch Manchurian Candidate (1962), so I’m gonna try and fit it in. Can you put me down for that?
Sure thing! Thanks for joining, Heidi! 🙂
I hope you enjoy the movie!
I’d like to review Young at Heart (1954) for this 🙂
Hi Rachel!
Great! You got it. Thanks for joining!
Sorry but going to have to withdraw from the blogathon this year for personal reasons, but hoping to enter with this choice next year so tell me the moment you press publish!!
Okay, too bad. Maybe next time!
Here’s my post!
