The singing of Doris Day and Frank Sinatra light up the big screen in “Young at Heart.” They sing and act their way through this entertaining film, which is well directed by Gordon Douglas (“Them!” 1954) and superbly written by Julius J. Epstein and Lenore J. Coffee.
The story follows the romantic ups and downs of the daughters of the musical Tuttle family, played by Doris Day, Dorothy Malone, and Elizabeth Frazer. The gentlemen callers are portrayed by Frank Sinatra, Gig Young, Alan Hale Jr., and Lonny Chapman. Also in the cast are Robert Keith and Ethel Barrymore in her second-to-last film. Her movie career began in 1914 in silent pictures and ended in 1957 in “Johnny Trouble” for Warner Bros.
The title song to “Young at Heart” was a big hit for Sinatra, reaching number two on the Billboard charts. This watchable motion picture was a big hit at the box office for Warner Bros. Pictures.
