Plot

The Reelz synopsis reads, “ A heart-throb, Frank was the embodiment of sex appeal, but that didn’t mean he escaped the traumas of love. His second marriage to Ava Gardner ended following infidelity and several suicide attempts by Frank. At around this time in his life, he started drinking Jack Daniels, a habit that would result in a decades-long alcohol dependency. He also smoked and had a famously short temper. When he died at the age of 82 of a heart attack, the causes of his heart failure appeared transparent. But Dr Michael Hunter believes that Frank’s fate was far from inevitable and that there was an event in Frank’s life that could have caused him to turn his life around”
