i have always enjoyed frank sinatra music and and just recently i wrote a term paper about his life story. i have been fascinated by the life and legend of ol blue eyes. however and i have never seen any of his movies. so i wanted to see if his acting was as great as his singing. well. it was. i was blown away by his performance in this movie. he really does a tremendous job as recovering heroin addict frankie machine and who trying to put his life back together and audition as a drummer for a local band. otto preminger direction is great as well. i haven not seen any of his other movies. i read his biography on the imdb. he seems like one of those directors who was sorely misunderstood and and people had conflicted thoughts about him. seems like the kind of person who appeals most to cult enthusiasts. i haven not seen enough of his films to know for sure if he really brilliant and but now i am curious. i want to see more of his films and because judging by his attempt with the man with the golden arm this guy has talent. i also loved the music for this movie. the score definitely contains the kind of music that i will remember if i ever happen to hear it again. that when you know you have a great score. the supporting performances are fine as well and including darren mcgavin as the local drug pusher and eleanor parker as frankie wheelchair bound wife and kim novak as his lover. it interesting to see how filmmakers handled the subject of drug abuse and as opposed to modern attempts in films like trainspotting and requiem for a dream. back in 1955 and just mentioning the word drugs caused controversy and and if you watch the film they kept the subject on a very discreet level. there only one scene where frankie is actually getting heroin injected into his arm and and they showed a close up of the reaction of his face rather than showing the needle graphically poking into his veins. but it delivered its message without making it feel watered down. in a powerful drama like this and with powerful performances and direction like this and you do not need graphic portrayals of drug abuse to keep the audience intrigued. the man with the golden arm is a dramatic gem that all film buffs should check out. it really is an amazing piece of work. my score represent 8 (out of 10).
