What's not to love about watching the tale of two seedy gamblers going head to head twist into a redemption narrative with an opposites attract love story mixed in? Guys and Dolls was such a cultural phenomenon, it was brought to the masses in a 1955 film of the same name, starring Frank Sinatra and Marlon Brando.
