Three sailors on shore leave in the Big Apple race against the clock to find the alluring Miss Turnstiles. Gene Kelly taught Frank Sinatra how to dance in 1945 for the movie Anchors Aweigh, which explains why, four years later, On the Town marks – in the words of music historian Will Friedwald – “one of Sinatra’s most memorable movie roles”. One of the most highly regarded New York movies ever, On the Town is also one of the Top 20 musicals on the American Film Institute’s list.
