Elvis lovely scenery lovelier girls and rock-a-hula songs - now that's paradise!Paradise Hawaiian StyleThe year was 1966. A little-known series called Star Trek. beams up. Valley of the Dolls is the hot book. Half of all TVs sold are color sets. And in Paradise Hawaiian Style Elvis takes to the skies over the island paradise of Kauai. He's a partner in a helicopter charter service. Romance naturally is in the air for the King...but his business may be grounded.

I LOVE ALL THE ELVIS MOVIES BUT WANTED THESE TWO MOVIES BECAUSE I WENT TO HAWAII IN 2007 AND AGAIN THIS YEAR. WATCHING THESE MOVIES REMINDS ME OF THE WONDERFUL TIME I HAD THERE AND WHILE WATCHING THEM I CAN SEE PLACES I WENT TO. I LOVE IT. I USUALLY PURCHASE THINGS THAT I COLLECT...VINTAGE VIEWMASTER REELS, SALT/PEPPER SHAKERS, PIXIES AND FLOATY PENS.

I bought the double movie last week and was exceedingly happy with it. It was exactly what I was looking for. We used it at the nursing home as part of our Hawaiian Luau day. Thank you.

Classic Elvis, singing and dancing his way through the movie. I especially liked all the scenic views of Hawaii captured in the film. We recsently returned from our first trip to Hawaii and saw things in the movie we saw in our trip, 48 years after the movie was filmed. Hanauma Bay were we snorkeled several times was just like it was when the movie was filmed. Kind of like Disneyland. Very Cool!
