I just picked this up from the library. I've seen the 2004 version and really liked it. It's currently ranked #70 on IMDB. I'm actually glad that I watched the remake first, because typically the remake is not as good and I feel letdown.

The remake is nothing compared to the original.

Cool, I can't wait to watch it. I think the only Frank Sinatra movie that I've seen is Canonball Run II.
