Frank Sinatra, at the zenith of his cocky, world-on-a-string popularity, glides through the film with breezy nonchalance, romancing showgirl Kim Novak (Columbia Pictures new sex symbol) and wealthy widow Rita Hayworth (Columbia Pictures former sex symbol). The film also benefits from location shooting in San Francisco, caught in the moonlight-and-supper-club glow of the late 50s. Sinatra does beautifully with the Rodgers and Hart classics \I Didnt Know What Time It Was\ and \I Could Write a Book,\ and his performance of \The Lady Is a Tramp\ (evocatively shot by director George Sidney) is flat-out genius. Sinatras ease with hep-cat lingo nearly outdoes Bing Crosby at his best, and included in the DVD is a trailer in which Sinatra instructs the audience in \Joeys Jargon,\ a collection of hip slang words such as \gasser\ and \mouse.\ If not one of Sinatras very best movies, Pal Joey is nevertheless a classy vehicle that fits like a glove
