Sinatra

The documentary "Sinatra. The Voice of America" tells the story of the Italian immigrant child from New Jersey who wanted nothing more than to make it on the other side of the river, in New York.
"Sinatra always wanted to be better than the locals. That was his lifelong ambition," says Charles Aznavour about his colleague.
His unconditional will to succeed both drove him and overshadowed his life.
The "entertainer of the century" is a lonely and depressed man.
He cleverly hides this behind the façade of the loudmouth, patriarch and lover.
He gathers a loyal entourage around him and has countless affairs.
However, he is unable to enter into intimate relationships with people.
He is only happy when he sings perfectly.

He has been on stage for almost 70 years, living through American history.
During the Second World War, his songs comforted lonely women.
The men at the front hated him because he seduced their wives with his soft voice.
But after the war, they want to be like him: cool, casual and elegant, preferably with a glass of whiskey in their hand.
Although he himself did not fight in the war, Sinatra became the prototype of the American man of the post-war years.
But the spirit that spread across America 15 years later during the Vietnam War was no longer Sinatra's cup of tea.
The time of the All-American Man is over.
Young people would rather listen to the Beatles or Jimi Hendrix.
But Sinatra is not satisfied with that.
He is working hard to transform himself from a relic into a living legend.

The documentary "Sinatra. The Voice of America" is a portrait of an artist with epochal power.
He continues to move and inspire people to this day.
Frank Sinatra would have been 100 years old in December.
A good reason to look back and find out how the boy with Italian roots lived his dream and became the voice of America.
A voice that is still unrivaled today.
