Mr. Sinatra did a remarkable job with From Here to Eternity. It helps us to never forget WWII and the tremendous sacrifice those courageous soldiers made. He played Maggio better than anyone else could; boy, did he deserve that award. I've heard that he had read the book and was determined that if they ever made a movie of it he would be Maggio. I'll say, if he hadnt played Maggio it wouldnt have been the same!

Very lucky to be able to experience that, something younger fans can only imagine.

Frank Sinatra really WAS that time.

I think Frank portraying similar bachelor characters in Frank Capra's "A Hole in the Head" & Neil Simon's screenplay "Come Blow Your Horn" with Tony Bill, are enduring enough to be viewed again & again with enjoyment,like a Sinatra album. With "All My Tomorrows" the theme from the Capra movie deservedly a Cahn-van Heusen Oscar song but 2nd to "High Hopes",is worth listening to inside or out of the film. And Nelson Riddle's arrangement of "Come Blow Your horn" is a classic though a little different in the movie; Frank goes up the octave @ the end, but not in the Reprise recording.
