Sinatra Big Hit In "The Joker Is Wild" At The Cass In a Chicago hotel room dur ing the brawling twenties, a promising young singer named Joe E. Lewis came to the end of a career, left for dead with his throat slashed by the hood lums he had refused to knuckle under to. Brought back to life by a mir acle, but with his singing voice almost gone, he doggedly start ed all over again, as a comic, and became one of the country's most successful, best-loved cafe performers. The scars he re ceived in Chicago, however, were as much on his heart as on his throat, and the laughs he drew from audiences by pok ing fun at his own weakness for liquor, women and the horses were but the echo of the des peration and loneliness he felt in the middle of the happiest nightclub throng. Out of that search for forgetfulness has come one of show business' great est talents and most moving and exciting stories. The saga of that fantastic comeback and of the dramatic touching and uproarious private and public, life of a man who lives up to every wisecrack he makes about himself has been filmed with Frank Sinatra star red in the lead role. Titled "The Joker Is Wild." the Charles Vi dor Vista Vision production, op ening Sun., Mon., and Tues., March 16, 17 .and 18, at the Cass Theatre, promises to be one of the year's outstanding films and a rare opportunity for movie goers to enjoy Sinatra's Oscar honored dramatic talents along with the singing and clowning that have made him the dean of entertainers. Starring along with Sinatra are Mitzi Gaynor, in her first dramatic role, Jeanne Crain and Eddie Albert, with Beverly Gar land and Jackie Coogan feat ured. A Paramount release, 'The Joker Is Wild" was di rected by Charles Vidor, pro duced by Samuel J. Briskin and written for the screen by Oscar Saul from the best-selling book by Art Cohn.
