In the 1963 comedic western 4 FOR TEXAS, Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin bring their Rat Pack camaraderie to the Wild West as they open up a casino in Galveston, Texas, circa 1870. As Zack Thomas and Joe Jarrett, respectively, they fend off a crooked banker (Victor Buono) and a ruthless hired gun played by Charles Bronson to take control of the gambling scene. Zack and Joe also, of course, have a winning streak with the ladies, in particular a pair of local business women - Anita Ekberg and Ursula Andress - who wheel and deal as well as the boys. The Three Stooges have a memorable bit in the film, and 50's era TV icon Arthur Godfrey also has a cameo.

Bonus features include an eight-minute "Behind the Scenes" featurette and original theatrical trailer.

There are only a handful of people who meant as much to the world of film as they did to the world of music. I think the case can be made that Frank Sinatra topped them all.
