One of the most requested movie titles for DVD release is finally being released in May as part of Warner Brothers tribute to Frank Sinatra on the 10th anniversary of his death. Sergeants 3 has not been available on home video since the early days of Beta in the 1970s. Supposedly, disputes over rights have kept it off the market, along with certain other films that Frank Sinatra had a hand in producing. Sergeants 3 is a remake of Gunga Din set in the American west with Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Peter Lawford playing the roles originally made famous by Cary Grant, Victor McLaughlin and Douglas Fairbanks Jr. In the role of the belittled regimental bugler who rises to an act of enormous heroism, Sammy Davis Jr. took the part played by Sam Jaffe in George Stevens' 1939 classic. Rat Pack stalwart Joey Bishop has a major supporting role. The film will be available only as part of a Rat Pack Ultimate Collector's Edition that includes a new deluxe release of Oceans Eleven,and the previously-released 4 For Texas and Robin and the Seven Hoods. The set will contain many bonus extras including rare footage from The Tonight Show, mini lobby cards, studio correspondence, production stills and commentaries by Frank Sinatra Jr and Angie Dickinson.
