Hello all,
My first post here and I had to mention this movie. Caught most of it on TV the other day and I can't believe how awful Elvis looked. I mean fat, my God.
Some sort of bloat or something to him-he didnt seem as heavy in Clambake and I am not sure about Frankie and Johnny. This has to be the nadir of his movies for me-having said that though, I'd watch it again!
at least his belly wasn't bloated ..i cant say he was fat on that movie, he is just a little more chubby.
Fat????????
Hi Joe, welcome aboard...Quote:

Fortunately it came: his marriage with Priscilla, the recording of non-soundtrack material (gospel LP, Big Boss Man, etc.) and the 68 Comeback Special.
Thank you Albert; I have lurked for a long time.Quote:

We're slowly getting over it, Joe. ;)
Glad to have you with us--lurk no more! :D
