Anyone who loves anything Frank Sinatra will be taken by the opening of this film, which was undoubtedly the concept for Omar Sharif's initial appearance in Lawrence.
An homage to the concept of trying to have fun and stay single, The Tender Trap, which also sports Debbie Reynolds, David Wayne and Celeste Holm is a delightful early CinemaScope confection.
Charles Walters (High Society, The Unsinkable Molly Brown) helms this one.
Photographed in Eastman Color, the element used seems to have up quite well. Color and densities look fine for Eastman of the era.
Aspect ratio is 2.55, which points to original 4-track stereo magnetic audio, and you'll find it here as DTS-HD MA 5.1.
After over 65 years, still a fun entertainment.
