The Joker Is Wild.

Joe E. Lewis (Frank Sinatra) is a successful 1920s Chicago night-club entertainer. His eventual decision to work elsewhere results in his face being slashed and his throat cut. Lewis soon develops an acerbic and witty sense of humor and is given a break as a stand-up comedian from singer Sophie Tucker.
