Some Came Running (1958) watch online

Some Came Running is a 1958 American drama film directed by Vincente Minnelli and starring Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Shirley MacLaine, based on the 1958 novel of the same name by James Jones. Set in 1948, it tells the story of a troubled army veteran and author who returns to his Midwestern home town after 16 years, to the chagrin of his wealthy, social-climbing brother.

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, in a bid to duplicate the success of the Academy Award-winning film adaptation of Jones' earlier novel From Here to Eternity (1953), optioned the 1,200-plus-page book Some Came Running and cast Sinatra as the lead. Sinatra approved Dean Martin for the role of Bama in what would be their first film together. Martha Hyer garnered her only Oscar nomination, while Arthur Kennedy earned his fifth and final nomination, and MacLaine received her first of five. The film was released in CinemaScope and Metrocolor.
