I read once that police came to Dean Martin’s house in which a party was ongoing and Frank Sinatra opened the door. The police said a neighbor complained about noise. Sinatra asked how that would be possible since all the neighbors were at the house party. After some dialog, Sinatra asked for a moment, went to Martin’s bedroom and awoke him. Sinatra stated to Martin “That was you who called the police, wasn’t it?” To which Martin replied and smiled “I have an early tee time and a (drinking) reputation to protect.” (indirect quotes) Martin called the police on his own house party. :-)
That story is true, but MArtin’s wife loved to throw parties, Dean would come for about an hour then go to bed to play golf. He called the police several times on his wife’s parties just to get them to break up and people to go home so he could sleep.
Also it was a rarity for Sinatra to ever be at Martin’s house, he was basically a recluse and never cared for anyone to come over, especially Sinatra.
I loved watching his show - there was always a surprise guest behind the door. His skits were classic....I heard he would not rehearse and used to laugh during the show during each number. So funny.
And agree with Vision on McQueen and Lee Marvin - definite icons up there with the "King of Cool."
