Some Came Running
Some Came Running ★★★ 1958
James Jones's follow-up novel to “From Here to Eternity” does not translate nearly as well to the screen. Overlong and with little plot, the action centers around a would-be writer, his floozy girl friend, and the holier-than-thou characters which populate the town in which he grew up and to which he has now returned. Strong performances by all. 136m/C VHS, DVD . Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Shirley MacLaine, Martha Hyer, Arthur Kennedy, Nancy Gates; D: Vincente Minnelli; C: William H. Daniels; M: Elmer Bernstein.
