    I have seen all of Elvis movies. His post army movies were not too hot with the exception of Blue Hawaii,Paradise Hawaiian Style,and of course the documentaries,Elvis on Tour, and That's The Way It Is. All of his pre-army movies from the 50s are just great but KING CREOLE is the top of the pile. Elvis Presley could really act if given the right script. Tom Parker and the Hollywood people gave him no credit and used his looks and singing.

    King Creole showed the real talent that this young man possessed!

    Viva las vagas was also very entertaining http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=qGNMpfyulXA&feature=...

    There will never be another Elvis.

    Hi George, it's been a while!

    My favorite is Speedway because it had a lot of my favorite NASCAR drivers at the time plus the gorgeous Nancy Sinatra!

    My second favorite is Viva Las Vegas mainly because of Ann-Magret!

    Blue Hawaii, because it had nice music and great scenery in it

    Also liked Charro where he playerd an indian it was a different role for him and let him act instead of singing so much
