Latest on Old Blue Eyes
Whilst we await an update on the projected Hollywood Sinatra biopic comes a report, hot off the New Jersey press, of a Sinatra stage presentation in the offing that looks a little bit different inasmuch as it isn't a "Rat Pack Rides Again" mishmash.

Hi Lance
The Sinatra biopic is to be directed by Martin Scorsese. No one cast as yet, although it has been suggested that Leonardo DiCaprio could take the lead.
