How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A cheerful Rat Pack romp that turns the Robin Hood legend into a Prohibition-era musical comedy, where tough guys in sharp suits croon their way through Chicago's underworld. It's all winking charm and tap-dancing escapism, earnest enough to care about the orphans, but never serious enough to spoil the fun.
