Pal Joey stars Rita Hayworth, Frank Sinatra and Kim Novak in a sophisticated musical comedy. Sinatra plays Joey Evans, a cabaret singer who romances wealthy socialite Hayworth into financing his own nightclub, but then falls for voluptuous chorine Novak. Pal Joey took 17 years to get to the screen. Based on a series of stories written as letters by John O'Hara for The New Yorker, the letters were all signed "Your Pal Joey" by a mythical dancer. O'Hara later adapted the stories as a book for the Broadway musical which starred Gene Kelly. When Columbia bought the film rights, studio chief Harry Cohn wanted Kelly for the lead and Hayworth for the younger role of Linda. But Kelly was already contracted to MGM and the project was shelved. At one time, Billy Wilder was interested in doing the picture with Marlon Brando and Mae West but the studio passed. It finally took the combined talents of Hayworth, Sinatra and newcomer Kim Novak to bring Pal Joey to the screen. The gossip columns were filled with stories of an impending battle over credits. Sinatra was at the height of his film popularity, but Hayworth's contract stipulated she receive top billing. The battle however, was never fought. Sinatra gladly took the second slot "I don't mind being in the middle of that sandwich," he quipped. Pal Joey contains some of Rogers and Hart's best songs including "My Funny Valentine," and one of Sinatra's biggest hits, "The Lady Is A Tramp." Hayworth's vocals were dubbed by Jo Ann Greer, Novak's by Trudi Erwin. Pal Joey was nominated for four Academy Awards® (1957) for Art Direction-Set Decoration, Sound Recording, Costume Design (by Jean Louis) and Film Editing. Although Pal Joey was a huge commercial success, it would be Rita Hayworth's swan song for Columbia. The studio machine that had turned Margarita Cansino into the glamorous Rita Hayworth, would now turn its attentions to Chicago-born Kim Novak, the last in a long line of studio-made stars.

Italiano Joey Evans (Sinatra) fa il cantante e vorrebbe aprire un locale tutto suo. C'è una ballerina, Linda (Novak), che è innamorata di lui, ma lui non sembra darle grande peso. Una sera capita a casa di Vera (Hayworth), ex ballerina, oggi ricchissima vedova. Vera è la donna che può aiutarlo ad aprire il locale: infatti i due si accordano e l'affare prende corpo. Lei però si accorge che Joey è attratto da Linda e gli impone di licenziarla... Non è sicuramente uno dei più memorabili musical hollywoodiani, però il terzetto di interpreti più le canzoni di Sinatra (tra le quali la celebre "The Lady Is a Tramp") garantiscono uno spettacolo piacevole.
Français Joey Evans, animateur de cabaret, arrive à San Francisco sans un sou en poche. Il rencontre par hasard son vieil ami Ned, pianiste au Club 626. Bientôt engagé par ce dernier, il devient la coqueluche des danseuses, qui rivalisent d'attentions à son égard. Seule la blonde Linda, l'amie de Ned, reste réservée. Il se met en tête de conquérir son coeur. Par ailleurs, la rousse Vera Simpson, une riche veuve, se dit prête à lui offrir le cabaret de ses rêves. Joey papillonne de l'une à l'autre. Vaniteux, arriviste, futile, charmeur, cynique, il a, a priori, les ressources suffisantes pour assumer cette situation quelque peu inconfortable. Seulement voilà, il lui faudra choisir et faire preuve de qualités jusque-là négligées...

Português Joey Evans (Frank Sinatra) é charmoso, bonito, engraçado, talentoso, de primeira classe, o maior dos malandros. Quando Joey encontra a ex corista e agora rica viúva Vera Simpson (Rita Hayworth), os dois desregrados parecem feitos um para o outro. Isto é, até surgir Linda English (Kim Novak). Linda é uma "mouse on the line" e vive como se não houvesse amanhã. Mas ela é a típica boa menina de uma boa família - exatamente o ingrediente certo para bagunçar a confortável situação do Joey.

Deutsch Joey kommt ohne einen Cent nach San Francisco, versucht sein Glück in einem Nachtclub und wird ein erfolgreicher Entertainer, dem die Frauen zu Füßen liegen. Doch so einfach ist es nicht, denn ausgerechnet die hübsche Sängerin Linda, in die Joey sich verliebt, bleibt ganz unbeeindruckt. Um die Sache noch komplizierter zu machen, kommt eine zweite Frau ins Spiel: Die reiche und attraktive Witwe Vera bietet ihm die Möglichkeit, seinen eigenen Nachtclub zu eröffnen. Joey ist zwischen beiden Frauen hin- und hergerissen.

български език Джоуи Евънс е красив, умен, обаятелен, остроумен, талантлив и най-вече голям женкар. Обожава всички жени – блондинки и брюнетки, слаби и пълни, млади и по-възрастни. След поредната авантюра се скрива в малко провинциално градче, където се запознава с бившата хористка, а сега богата вдовица Вера Симсън. Скоро предприемчивият Джоуи организира собствено шоу, спонсорирано от Вера. Но тяхната връзка и безоблачното им щастие е застрашено от самия Джоуи, който се опитва да покори сърцето и на главната звезда на шоуто Линда.

It's an Oscar-nominated musical look at the lives and loves of a show boat theater troupe aboard an old-fashioned Mississippi riverboat. Featuring all-American classic songs by Oscar Hammerstein and Jerome Kern, including "Ol' Man River." Starring Kathryn Grayson ("Kiss Me Kate"), Oscar-nominees Ava Gardner ("Mogambo," "The Night of the Iguana") and Agnus Moorehead (TV's "Bewitched," "Citizen Kane") and Howard Keel (TV's "Dallas").

Let danger befall him. Let the winds of fate blow where they may. Andre Moreau will strike a blow for vengeance and the French Revolution. First, he must hone his skill with the blade. By day, Andre secretly perfects his parries and lunges... and hides his true identity at night behind the mask of stage clown Scaramouche. A climactic duel that's one of the greatest sequences ever to lay steel to foe caps this bravura adaptation of the Rafael Sabatini (Captain Blood, The Sea Hawk) novel. George Sidney (1948's The Three Musketeers) nimbly directs all the swordplay, wordplay and horseplay. And Stewart Granger brings dash and deviltry to his portrayal of a hero "born with a gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad." En garde!
