In 1954, Frank Sinatra won an Oscar for his performance as a scrappy soldier named Angelo Maggio in the film “From Here to Eternity.” In our Winter Doldrums podcast, we play an audio clip from Francis Ford Coppola’s first Godfather film that details how that role went to Sinatra over the intense objection of Columbia Pictures head of production Harry Cohn. We also have an audio clip from Francois Truffaut’s film “Fahrenheit 451,” adapted from Ray Bradbury’s novel of the same name.
