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.

"Follow That Dream", another good comedy.


Glad to be of help. Cheers........Mel.

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.
