100 Years of Frank Sinatra: Young at Heart (the movie)

Young at Heart opened at the Paramount Theater in New York City on January 20, 1955, although IMDb shows a general USA release of December 1954.



New York Times movie critic Bosley Crowther rather liked the movie.

Those who remember "Four Daughters" as a most beguiling pre-World War II romance and the performance of the late John Garfield in it as one of the best he ever gave may be a bit surprised to discover that Warner Brothers' new "Young at Heart" is a remake of that old favorite, with Frank Sinatra in the Garfield role. They may also be surprised to discover, in this color film, which opened at the Paramount yesterday, that the old sentiments are rather nicely warmed up and that Mr. Sinatra acquits himself well.

December 25, 1954, was Barbara's first Christmas.
