Speak Softly Love

'Al Martino' is probably known best from his role as 'Johnny Fontane' in The Godfather movies. The character is based on 'Frank Sinatra.' The part of Fontane was first offered to 'Vic Damone' who turned it down.

After seeing the picture a night or two ago, for the umpteenth time, I found 'Martino' singing the movie's theme.
