Viewing Notes

A sequel of sorts to TONY ROME. I wanted to like this one more than the original because of the interesting premise and Raquel Welch but the tone too often wavers on the sillier side. Still,  Welch is great as is Dan Blocker (most recognizable as Tiny from Bonanza), and who can resist Sinatra’s late career charm?
