This will destroy whatever street cred I had left, but I've always preferred Dino to Sinatra. Both singing and acting.
I think that Ask The Dust is a totally "overlooked" little gem of a film. I really enjoyed it.. and liked the chemistry between Colin and Salma. Too bad that more people didn't see it.
You've still got cred with me, Bill. Sinatra may be the better singer, but I'll always go with Dean first.
Vince (and Bill!), I'll third the motion of Dino-over-Sinatra (and what's more, the wife's got my/our backs on this, too!). Frank may have been the stylistic pioneer, but could he really caress a standard the way Dean could? I say nay.
You guys are all nuts. Hey, I like Dean too, but Sinatra was the premier interpreter of the 20th century standard. Plus he could swing too. You think all those girls were swooning over nothing? That creamy voice. That impeccable phrasing. The man had it all. Dean is great but Frank will always be number one.
