Blu-ray review for 'Love Me Tender'


"Love Me Tender" is fairly standard, old-Hollywood Western fare when the genre was at its zenith. The performers do solid, serviceable work, but the movie is memorable mostly because it served as the film debut of the King of Rock and Roll. Elvis isn’t nearly as effective when he has to portray Clint’s rage, but he gets a lot of credit for tackling a character with an honest-to-goodness emotional arc for his film debut. Not surprisingly, he’s far more successful when he’s playing the happy-go-lucky side of Clint, who happens to swivel his hips and play guitar suspiciously like rock star Elvis Presley.
