How Great Elvis Was

I've read things about this movie. Things like that Elvis almost refused to do it. Okay, maybe the movie isn't great, but the first time I saw it I liked it. The second time I saw it, I really got to like it. Elvis made the movie for me. I liked him in every movie he did. I also loved seeing him sing in Clambake. He did some pretty good songs. For me, this movie is a treat, but that just goes to show how great Elvis was. Elvis could take a movie that isn't even that good and make it worth seeing. First time I saw Stay Away Joe I hated it. The second time I saw it I liked it. I find the movie fun. Again, Elvis makes the movie.

I always thought Elvis should never have been ashamed of his movie career. I think Clambake was great. The whole cast is wonderful. Stay Away, Joe might be his weakest film, but it's still good because of him.

Nah Harum Scarum is the weakest.

Stay Away Joe, a mess of a film but it features Elvis at his absolute sexiest and hottest! Those jeans and that tight camera angle on his ass too, sigh!
