It was Frank’s third wedding, and it would not be his last.  Shortly after the nuptials, Farrow reneged on an agreement to costar in the upcoming Sinatra flick “The Detective”. She had a conflict with a little film called “Rosemary’s Baby”. Sinatra’s response: he had Farrow served with divorce papers on the set.
