(FAQ). If Elvis Presley had not wanted to be a movie star, he would never have single-handedly revolutionized popular culture. Yet this aspect of his phenomenal career has been much maligned and misunderstood partly because the King himself once referred to his 33 movies as a rut he had got stuck in just off Hollywood Boulevard. Elvis Films FAQ explores his best and worst moments as an actor, analyzes the bizarre autobiographical detail that runs through so many of his films, and reflects on what it must be like to be idolized by millions around the world yet have to make a living singing about dogs, chambers of commerce, and fatally naive shrimps. Elvis's Hollywood years are full of mystery, and Elvis Films FAQ covers them all! Which of his own movies did he actually like? What films did he wish he could have made? Why didn't he have an acting coach? When will Quentin Tarantino stop alluding to him in his movies? And was Clambake really the catalyst for his marriage to Priscilla? Elvis Films FAQ explains everything you want to know about the whys and wherefores of the singer-actor's bizarre celluloid odyssey; or, as Elvis said, "I saw the movie and I was the hero of the movie."

A collection of 100 black and white photographs with text and captions by Steve Pond. On 1 April 1956 Elvis Presley, 21 years old, came to Hollywood. When Love Me Tender, his first movie, was released in November of that year, screaming fans mobbed the theatres. Now, over 30 years later, a collection of negatives have been unearthed at the Michael Ochs archives in California. Taken during the filming of Love Me Tender, these photographs show Elvis as we like to remember him - the bad boy of 50s rock and roll. These were the days before Hollywood had exploited him as a screen commodity, the days when, for Elvis, everything seemed possible.
