YES. Sky was played by Marlon Brando, and "Nathan Detroit" by Frank Sinatra.
It didnʻt become a favorite of mine, because none of my favorites of that time were in the female roles: it lacked Mitzi Gaynor, Cyd Charisse, Vera-Ellen, Yvonne DeCarlo, Leslie Caron et al.

Yes rolandperkins I saw your continuation. The title of this thread is drop a word add a word. You went from "modern family" to "language" thereby dropping two words and adding one word that was completely unrelated to either. It was as if given a series: black, green, blue, yellow you followed it with "cabbage". This may make sense to you but if so you are dancing to a different drummer than the rest of us.

Iʻve said I have no idea why I posted "language" (876).
On thinking it over, probably I had in mind the phrases "language family" and "modern language".
But I still should have made it a 2-word posting.
