Monday's New York Times crossword puzzle solved: December 21, 2020















My time: 4:03, one and a half minutes faster than average.

PAL JOEY was a 1957 film starring Frank Sinatra, based on the original 1940 novel and subsequent musical.  Sinatra plays the title role, Joey Evans, a talented, charming heel.
