There is a famous story about Die Hard (which you can watch with a Prime subscription if you haven’t seen it in a while) about how the role Bruce Willis played was first offered to Frank Sinatra. I’ve known this story for years, and though I’ve seen Die Hard countless times, for whatever reason, I’ve never gone back to check the movie that is the reason Sinatra was offered the role first, 1968’s The Detective. I finally have, and I’m really glad I did.
