Dean Martin was undeniably brilliant, dominating the landscape of popular culture for decades. He was a master of improv, a giant of comedic timing, a movie star, consummately elegant and one of the smoothest crooners of the 20th century. A bold investigative portrait of the underrated genius and his lasting cultural relevance as the one-of-a-kind King of Cool.
