Trailer for the Film on YouTube:
Dean performs "That's Amore" in this film. This film features a lot of professional legends from the world of Golf, who were famous in the 1950s.
Get ready for Donna Reed's appearance around the 33 minute mark.
This film also features stock footage of the boys when they were surprised by thousands of screaming fans (yes, just like the Beatles), outside their townhouse window, so the producers included it as part of this film.
Remember, when Dean went off on his own in the 60s to pursue his solo career he became known as the Beatle-Smasher, because he was the only guy ever to knock the Beatles out of the number one spot. That is true power and talent. In fact, among entertainment lore, it turns out Dean predicted he would knock the Beatles out of first place. A bet he placed with his son, who was a huge Beatles fan. - Phil
