Sinatra Part I
by Alex Gibney
(United States, 2015, 118′)
An up-close and personal examination of the life, music and career of Frank Sinatra. Told in his own words from hours of archived interviews, along with commentary from those closest to him, the documentary weaves the music and images from the legendary crooner’s life together with rarely seen footage of his famous 1971 “Retirement Concert” in Los Angeles. The film’s narrative is shaped by Sinatra’s song choices for that concert, which guide us through his life. Drawing on comments from friends and family, the film focuses on Sinatra’s first 60 years – beginning with his birth in Hoboken, New Jersey and meteoric rise in his 20s. This unprecedented tribute follows Sinatra’s growth from roadhouse performer to global singing sensation.
Event of the Omaggi Section at The Rome Film Fest.
