The original Rat Pack--Frank Sinatra?? Dean Martin?? Sammy Davis?? Jr.?? Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop--star with Angie Dickenson in the original Ocean's 11. Eleven pals prepare to carry out a--theoretically--foolproof plan to rob five Las Vegas casinos at midnight on New Year's Eve. The plan depends on split-second timing?? and everything goes like clockwork ... at first. But even in this almost perfect scheme?? things begin to go wrong.
]]>The original hepcat spree?? the big daddy of Rat Pack movies?? the straight flush in a high-stakes game: yeah?? it's Ocean's 11?? baby. Long before George Clooney dared to rework this movie into a franchise?? Frank Sinatra turned a straightforward heist picture into--well?? in some ways?? a star-studded but still straightforward heist picture. Ocean's 11 is sometimes a surprise to fans who expect a jokier?? more freewheeling movie; the boys actually play it fairly straight in this one?? and after all they're under the direction of Lewis Milestone?? once the director of All Quiet on the Western Front.
