4 for Texas (1963) Overwiew
Starring : Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Anita Ekberg, Ursula
Andress, Charles Bronson,
Overview :When con men Zack Thomas (Frank Sinatra) and Joe
Jarrett (Dean Martin) team up to open a gambling den, they quickly
realize that business in the wild West isn’t so easy. Both miscreant
banker Harvey Burden (Victor Buono) and loose-cannon gunman Matson
(Charles Bronson) are out to stifle Zack and Joe’s moneymaking schemes.
Luckily, the grifters still find plenty of time to romance a couple of
voluptuous frontier babes (Anita Ekberg and Ursula Andress). Rat Packers
Sinatra and Martin fuel this comedic Western with their genuine,
inimitable chemistry, and the pleasingly skewed supporting
cast--including the staggering beauties Ekberg and Andress, the Three
Stooges, and Yaphet Kotto in an uncredited cameo that marked his film
debut--follows their roisterous lead. Director Robert Aldrich, fresh off
the critical and popular success of his caustic psycho-thriller WHAT
EVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE?, uses a much lighter touch in 4 FOR TEXAS to
create an enjoyable, star-studded ride through the old West.
