Elvis Presleys stature as the King of Rock and Roll will never be challenged. Between his first RCA hit single in 1956the numberone smash Heartbreak Hoteland his death in 1977, Elvis amassed more than 100 hits on the music charts. Presleys dominance on the music chart was paralleled only by the singers motion picture career. Between 1956 and 1969, Elvis appeared in more than thirty films, further cementing his place as one of the most popular entertainers of the twentieth century. While there have been countless books that explore the real Elvis tucked beneath layers of showbiz mythology, such volumes often dismiss his motion picture career as insignificant or overlook his onscreen work entirely.In The Elvis Movies, James L. Neibaur looks at the thirtyone features that Presley made, from Love Me Tender in 1956 to Change of Habit in 1969. Most of these were star vehicles tailormade for his image. As Neibaur points out, Elvis had a real interest in being a good actor, but his initial promise was soon thwarted by anticreative decisions that sold a packaged version of the singer. Despite lapsing into a predictable formula of lightweight musicals, Elvis Presleys star power ensured that the films became box office successes. Neibaur examines each film, providing information about their production and offering assessments about their value in general, as well as their place in the Presley canon. Additional details include behindthescenes personnel, costars, DVD availability, and featured hit songs.An entertaining and informative look at an often underrated aspect of the singers career, The Elvis Movies offers readers insight into his films. This volume will be a welcome resource to fans of the singer who want to know more about the King and his successful ventures on the big screen.
