AboutMel Priddle Expertise For 50 years I have been listening to, buying and searching into the music of Elvis Presley. If you have a question relating to any song that Elvis recorded (officially, unofficially or privately), then I guarantee to give you an answer. Likewise with his movies. Questions relating to Elvis' private life I prefer to leave to others.

Question I'm a HUGE Elvis fan. I've seen only a couple of his movies, I know there are over 30, I was wondering if you could tell me a couple of his best ones that I should watch. My favorite is Viva Las Vegas :)
Answer Hello Reva,
Well, I can only really tell what my personal favourites are, but I do think they are among his best......
"G.I. Blues", a nice comedy with lots of songs.
"King Creole", a more serious film, but again with lots of songs.
"Flaming Star", a western film that allowed Elvis to try out his acting skills, but only a couple of songs.
