Description:
Elvis plays Rusty Wells, the leader of a four-piece rock group, consisting of Gary Crosby, Joby Baker and Jimmy Hawkins. Hired by Chicago gangster boss Big Frank (Harold J. Stone) to protect the virtue of Frank's cute daughter Valerie (Shelley Fabares), Rusty and his buddies follow Valerie to Fort Lauderdale during Spring Break. The girl falls in love with Rusty, then falls out of love when she learns that he's in her dad's employ. Valerie then becomes involved with a slick Italian playboy (Fabrizio Mioni), forcing Rusty to break up the romance lest he end up in a cement overcoat.

Elvis Presley does the clam--a now-forgotten dance--in this 1964 potboiler in which the King stars as a singer who gets a gig in Ft. Lauderdale with his combo but has to baby-sit a mobster's teenage daughter (Shelley Fabares) as part of the deal. Fabares's character, looking for a break, runs wild and makes life difficult for Elvis. The film has the usual 'Elvis movie' bounce and wolfish jokes and glossy disposability, but the endearing (and smart) presence of Fabares as the love interest adds a bit more zip than usual. Songs include the title track, plus 'Puppet on a String,' 'Do Not Disturb,' and 'Let's Party Tonight.' Directed by Boris Sagal (The Omega Man). --Tom Keogh

Rating:  - Can't go wrong with the King
Have you ever seen a bad Elvis movie? This is one of our favorite Elvis movies of all time. We love watching this movie and wanted a copy of our own. The DVD came with some postcard pictures inside with Elvis and the cast/crew. They are a great keepsake to have. I would definitely tell anyone to purchase this movie for their collection.Girl Happy

"Girl Happy" is a product of Spring Break in Florida during the 1960's. Elvis and his buddies are hired to secretly watch over Shelley Fabares during her ... Read More
