King Creole (2000, DVD)

Movie Description
Considered by many to be the best Elvis movie, KING CREOLE stars the young Mr. Presley as Danny Fisher, a singer with a knack for getting into trouble. After the cops nab him for stealing, Danny vows never to violate the law again. He manages to land a gig singing at a hip nightclub in the French Quarter of New Orleans. However, mobster Maxie Fields (Walter Matthau) soon demands that Danny perform exclusively for him. And to make matters worse, Danny gets involved with Maxie's squeeze (Carolyn Jones) and risks losing his own true love, Nellie (Dolores Hart), as well as his own neck.

    This DVD came back very quickly and in pristine condition. I will likely order from them again. The packaging was safe and the DVD case was in perfect working order.

    What I Love about this DVD is it was a great movie and I enjoy seeing Elvis Presley in this movie. I enjoy being able to purchase items like this from Ebay because it would be difficult to find it otherwise and the great price and delivery I have gotten since I started shopping with Ebay is outstanding.

      A Welcome change from his typical role!
    Review created: 04/29/08

    I loved this movie simply because it's so unlike the typical boy meets girl, boy chases girl role that he tends to play.... it seemed almost like an old school "beginning" mafia movie that truly showed Elvis was just as talented as I've always known him to be:) The non "good boy" image showed how things don't always play hand-in-hand for the perfect happy ending, but a non-stop twisting of love, lies and entertainment.

    Better than average Elvis movie. Great music, if you like EP and New Orleans, which I do. Walter M. was good playing the bad guy.
