Tom will be killed. The other char
acters continue to work against each

“Miller’s Crossing” is not an in
tricate, complicated story but nei
ther is it typical and never is it
boring. It rises above its contem
poraries with solid and affecting
acting by all and wonderful cine
matography.
It’s a story that becomes imme
diately intriguing and continues to
stir, remaining tasteful with a clas
sical quality comparable to movies
of the ’30s and ’40s.
“Miller’s Crossing” is showing
at Stuart Theatre, 13 and P streets.

A legend turns 75; Sinatra
returns to hometown to celebrate
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Frank
Sinatra, one-time idol of bobby-sox
ers who became a show business leg
end, evokes nostalgia these days, but
as he turns 75 he’s still doing it his
way.
Known as the Chairman of the
Board, Oi’ Blue Eyes, the Voice, just
plain Frank or simply Sinatra, the
crooner is belting out standards for
still another generation of pop music
fans. On Tuesday, the eve of Francis
Albert Sinatra’s 75th birthday cele
bration, the entertainer returns to an
arena near his New Jersey hometown
of Hoboken to begin a yearlong world
lour designed to fulfill a lifetime
yearning — performances in the Soviet
Union and possibly China.
After kicking off his Diamond
Jubilee World Tour at the Meadow
lands’ Brendan Byrne Arena, Sinatra
will gather with his family at a hotel
for a private birthday celebration.
“There are no words that can truly
describe Frank Sinatra — magic,
charisma and talent—they still don’t
accurately capture the aura about him,”
said his former longtime publicist,
Lee Solters.
Sinatra, who first became popular
in die 1940s, continues to get under
our skin, whether he’s performing
before sellout audiences or singing
from recordings, including two new
boxed sets just released for Christ
mas.
Fly Me to the Moon, Strangers
in the Night,”“You Make Me Feel So
Young,” “The Lady Is a Tramp,” “New
York, New York,” “Summer Wind,”
“I’ve Got You Under My Skin” and
“My Way” are Sinatra classics.
He’s won Grammys and Emmys.
He collected a special Academy Award
in 1945 for “The House I Live In,” a
short about religious and racial toler
ance, and the supporting actor Oscar
for his role as Pvt. Angelo Maggio in
“From Here to Eternity.”
He’s appeared in more than 50
movies, including “Anchors Aweigh,”
On the Town,” “Guys and Dolls,”
“The Tender Trap,” “High Society,”
"Pal Joey,” “The Manchurian Candi
date” and “Von Ryan’s Express.”
His hairline has receded over the
years, and his waist has thickened,
but his light baritone has only grown
deeper and richer.
Troika

used a live cellist, Peter Lavin, on
stage. The dark, flowing piece fea
tured dancers Jarcckc, Kudma, Mapcs
Raasch, Stickel and Twomey, all
dressed in black.
“Troika” was a very fast-paced
production; all nine dances and an
intermission took place within one
hour and 15 minutes. The perform
ance was so quick that the audience
didn’t have a chance to get bored.
However, with the talent that was
displayed, no one would have been
bored if the performance had been
lengthened.
The blunt, aggressive son of im
migrants has led a lavish lifestyle and
associated with people whose names
could be found in FBI files. But for
each story of him punching someone
who had offended him, there was a
story' of loyalty and generosity to friends
and strangers.
He exudes vitality these days. Still,
Sinatra may be thinking about his
age. During a toast on an upcoming
TV special, he lifts his glass and says:
“May you all live to be 400 years old,
and may the last voice you hear be
mine.”
Tina Sinatra, his daughter who
helped edit the CBS-TV special
“Sinatra 75: The Best Is Yet to Come,”
to be broadcast next Sunday, con
ceded she was overwhelmed after going
over details of her father’s life.
“I was pretty well educated,pretty
well aware of his career, because I’ve
known him all my life, of course,” she
said. “But when you do it in a consoli
dated time it is quite something. It’s
emotional. It’s fascinating. It’s over
whelming.”
