Richard Linklater on Vincente Minnelli's Some Came Running

Frank Sinatra stars in the James Jones adaptation. TCM has the trailer.

It's the minor films that make all the difference.

I was 23 and I was really starting to dig into film's history. I'd just moved to Austin, Texas, and I was voracious - I was watching maybe 600 films a year. And then I came across a campus screening of Vincente Minnelli's Some Came Running. I didn't take it on as a "Oh here's a great film you have to see" - it's just something I wandered into.
