A powerful drama which broached the subject of drug addiction in a stark and dramatic manner. Still as controversial and relevant by today’s standards, The Man with the Golden Arm touches the deep emotional core of drug and gambling addiction. After six months of drug rehab. Frankie Machine (Frank Sinatra), returns to the seedy Chicago joints where he began and succumbs once more to the dark, sinister addictions of professional poker, and – even more dangerously – heroin. Based on the novel by Nelson Algren. Academy Award Nominations: 3 including Best Actor – Frank Sinatra.
Starring: Frank Sinatra, Kim Novak, Eleanor Parker
