The frames passes quickly, but yep, that's Jilly & Gregory Peck as the video first opens. Frank looks magnificent, as always. What can one add to the beauty that was Philly's own, Princess Grace. As breathtaking and regal a woman as there ever was.

I had no idea, before seeing this, that Ava was there. She appears to be having a ball dancing with Gregory Peck. Thanks for posting Steffen!

Thank you for the photos, Francis Albert always looks great! I recall the beautiful movie that Princess Grace, Frank, and Bing Crosby did.

i remember princess graces introduction of Frank Sinatra in concert at royal festival hall in 1970. she tells the story of how she shot the movie "Mogambo" in 1953 with ava gardner in africa, and how Frank accompanied ava there, and one day organized an unforgettable christmas for them.
