I would die for Barney…I could fix him
What a weird little movie! Continuing my Sinatrafication with this one that I think was filmed pre-Oscar but released post-Oscar, all while financially and emotionally relying on his cold estranged wife, Ava Gardner. Again, you can tell that he really was not doing well, so he pulls off a cynical depressed man so so well. I love when we can utilize our mental health issues to further our careers!
