Catalogue Note

Sinatra disses Lawford Sinatra produced the film and cast most of the Rat Pack, including Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr. and himself, but pointedly excluded Peter Lawford, whom he had expelled from his circle after an aborted visit to Sinatra's home by President Kennedy. Lawford was blamed for not interceding more strongly to support the visit on Frank's behalf. Kennedy instead stayed at Bing Crosby's home and it was Crosby that was cast in the film role that was originally Lawford's.
