Pal Joey (1957)
4/10
Bad acting, bad songs and a predictable plot.
8 November 2006
An aging Rita Hayworth appears in a role beneath her talents.

A beautiful Kim Novak (who has little acting skill) looks frighteningly out of place dancing and singing -- not to mention acting.

Barbara Nichols (who had great acting skill) was woefully underutilized.

Sinatra never was handsome enough to play such a character as Joey Evans. And yes, I am one of the people who is NOT charmed by his singing.

A disaster yesterday and hopelessly dated today, Pal Joey is what many people eat on the cob.
