Dean Martin: The Introvert
Dean Martin was painted as an easy-going, casual guy who liked to party. In reality, Dean Martin was a mostly-sober introvert who enjoyed a nice night in rather than a wild night out. By the end of his life, he was quite the hermit.
Compromising with Sinatra
Peter Lawford was the first of the rat pack to acquire the rights to the famous heist movie Ocean's 11. His idea was to have William Holden play the lead role of Danny Ocean. When Lawford ran that idea by Frank Sinatra, Sinatra said, 'Forget the movie, let's pull the job!" In order to quell his feelings of pulling off a million-dollar heist, Lawford cast Sinatra as Danny Ocean.
