Classy. Suave. Fun. These describe the Rat Pack who played the Las Vegas casino robbers in the original Ocean’s Eleven. With Frank Sinatra starring as Danny Ocean, how can the movie be far from interesting?
Shot during the early mornings of Las Vegas, the original Ocean’s Eleven proved to be a hit heist film. It was directed by Lewis Milestone and with Sinatra were the other Rat Packers–Dean Martin, Peter Lawford, Joey Bishop, and Sammy Davis, Jr. Other characters in the movie were played by Angie Dickinson, Richard Conte, Cesar Romero, Henry Silva, Akim Tamiroff, Ilka Chase, Norman Fell, Buddy Lester, and Harry Wilson.
What made the movie popular is the fact that the Rat Pack played the main roles and that the plot of the movie is witty. More than that, there were interesting cameo appearances by Shirley MacLaine, George Raft, and Red Skelton.
Today, Ocean’s Eleven is made famous by the eye-candy and talented actors George Clooney, Brad Pitt, and Matt Damon. The other actors that made the film successful are Julia Roberts, Casey Affleck, Scott Caan, Shaobo Qin, Bernie Mac, Don Cheadle, Carl Reiner, Ellie Gould, Eddie Jemison, and Andy Garcia. In addition, both the original and the remake movies are dubbed as VH1’s best Vegas movies in 2007.

Recommendation
The poster will surely be a treasure for the fans of the original Ocean’s Eleven movie, the Rat Pack and the Ocean’s Eleven remake. The poster is also perfect for lamination, framing, and mounting.
