Ausgewählte Rezension
"Las Vegas Nights" is a rather poor film which you STILL might want to see. Why? Because it also happens to be Frank Sinatra's first movie...although I should warn you, his part is tiny and he only sings with a quartet...no real acting involved. You can also see Tommy Dorsey and his orchestra (Sinatra sang for them for a while).
The film finds three sisters in Las Vegas to take charge of a seemingly worthless piece of property. Along for the ride is a complete idiot (Bert Wheeler) who mostly makes a mess of things. How? Well, the property ISN'T worthless, as some developer needs the land for a big project...and some conniving no-goodnick lawyer is set on buying up the land for pennies...and the idiot seems to try his best to unintentionally help the guy even though he is married to one of the sister.
In addition to the weak story which occasionally annoys, the film has a lot of music...some of which has Sinatra. But you'd never know that he was destined for stardom with this performance. Overall, a tough film to love but an important one historically. It's just undone by weak writing and although it clocks in at 90 minutes (far too long to technically be a B-movie), it seems like a cheap B in many ways.
