PLOT

Elvis thought of himself as just a country boy, and maybe it was that innocent quality combined with a fantastic energy level that made him so special. From his first recordings on the Sun record label, people recognized that this is what legends are made of. In his personal appearances, all his magic was fulfilled. Elvis had moves on stage that were unique to him alone. The fantastic success Elvis achieved in his chart breaking record career and his followup personal appearance tours were just the tip of the iceberg. Hollywood beckoned, and stardom was immediate. Lines of admirers wrapped themselves around the block waiting to get into the local movie house just to see him, and in this retrospective, we look at these "Elvis starring vehicles" and immediately know why. This unique program encompasses all phases of this remarkable entertainer. You will see rare footage, film clips, stills, and information that will delight every trivia lover.
