Robin Hood Through the Ages

Robin and the 7 Hoods, 1964
Countless films have been inspired by the legendary outlaw. This gangster film staring Frank Sinatra spins the clock forward from the England of the Middle Ages to the Chicago of the 1930s. The movie, which also stared Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Bing Crosby and Peter Falk, featured the debut of the classic Sinatra tune "My Kind of Town (Chicago Is)."
