Reviews Customer Reviews for Sinatra At The Movies      What about the original soundtrack albums?      Rating:      All of these songs are wonderful, but ... when will Capitol finally reissue Frank's great soundtrack albums from the '50s, namely "High Society," "Pal Joey," and "Can-Can"? We get bits and pieces of them in collections like this, but they deserve to appear in complete form, with 24-bit remastering. "Pal Joey" is especially great. Yet the only CD containing all five FS songs from that album -- the ones recorded with Nelson Riddle in the Capitol studios, not the inferior Columbia sound stage versions heard in the movie -- is the out-of-print "Sinatra Sings the Select Rogers and Hart." C'mon, Capitol. Why keep recycling the same stuff when you've still got some prime cuts sitting in the vaults?     Customer Reviews for Sinatra At The Movies Cd      fine album of movie ballads--BRAVO, FRANK SINATRA !!!      Rating:      Sinatra At The Movies has some great movie songs performed by Frank Sinatra. Sure, they may not be the exact songs sung in the movies--but since when has Frank let us down? The quality of the sound is excellent and the artwork is beautifully done as well. "(Love Is) The Tender Trap" starts the CD as Frank sings this so very well; his voice is strong, confident and very vibrant. Frank never sounded better and that's fantastic! The musical arrangement uses the brass very well and that's great. "From Here To Eternity" features Frank Sinatra front and center--and how wonderful it is! Frank massages the lyrics to this tune and it makes for a sublime performance--awesome! In addition, Frank Sinatra does a brilliant job on "I Love Paris." "I Love Paris" is a number I have always loved and I truly believe that Frank Sinatra's delivery of this ballad is THE definitive rendition of "I Love Paris." "How Deep Is The Ocean" is a classic love song that so many artists have sung; but when Frank Sinatra sings this he really makes it shine so brightly! Frank handles the complicated tempo and key changes like the pro he was and still remains; and the music gets a very sensitive arrangement. "All The Way" has another wonderful treatment from The Chairman Of The Board as he delivers this with panache; and this impresses me greatly. I'm sure you'll like Frank singing "All The Way" if you haven't heard this before. "Young At Heart" is a beautiful tune with a catchy melody and the strings sound beautiful on this number. Frank Sinatra's delivery is totally flawless--and how many artists could sing "Young At Heart" as well as Frank? "High Hopes" is a cute number that Frank sings with a darling children's chorus; Frank sings this without a superfluous note and the children's choir was chosen with care so that they could harmonize to perfection--and beyond! In addition, "The Lady Is A Tramp" amazes me as Frank Sinatra sings this like a champ; "The Lady Is A Tramp" is clearly another timeless tune and this is also a major highlight of this album. "Chicago" gets a wonderful upbeat arrangement that fits in so well with Frank's vocals; and listen for "Three Coins In The Fountain;" this song from the movie of the same name really sparkles when Frank performs this with feeling, heart and soul. Great! "C'est Magnifique" again puts Frank in the spotlight and this love song is truly another highlight of this album. "Just One Of Those Things" features Frank swinging brightly to make this number a wonderful treat with a big band style arrangement; and the CD ends so well with Frank Sinatra singing "To Love And Be Loved." "To Love And Be Loved" is a very pretty ballad which makes this a fitting end for this exceptional album. Frank Sinatra could sing just about any song; and this album proves it. This is a must-have for Sinatra fans and people who enjoy songs from Hollywood movies will want this album, too.
