Elvis Presley # THE MOVIE Viva Las Vegas # part 1 of 8

Viva Las Vegas, from 1964, is an American romantic musical movie that co-starred the singer and actor Elvis Presley and the actress and dancer Ann-Margret. This movie is regarded by many fans of these actors and by film critics as one of Presley’s best movies, and it is noted for the apparent on-screen attraction between Mr. Presley and Ms. Ann-Margret. It also presents a strong set of ten musical “song-and-dance scenes”, and a reasonably-interesting story.Viva Las Vegas was a hit at movie theaters, becoming the number 11 movie in the list of the Top 20 Movie Box Office hits of 1964. Lucky Jackson (Elvis Presley) goes to Las Vegas, Nevada, to participate in the city’s first annual Grand Prix Race. However, his race car, an Elva Mk. VI, is in need of a new engine in order to keep running. Lucky raises the necessary money in las vegas, but he mislays it when he is distracted by a nubile local swimming instructor, Ms. Rusty Martin (Ann-Margret). Soon, Lucky’s main competition arrives in the form of “Count Elmo Mancini”, (played by Cesare Danova), who attempts to steal both the auto race and the affections of Rusty. TRACK LISTING: 1.

    @sherishorten1 Too nice of a guy? have you read any of the books on him? Priscilla’s book? She gave him her opinion on a song he played on his record and then the next thing, she had? a chair being thrown her way. He was a nice guy, yes, but a real bad temper that led to hurt and everyone who knew him said he couldn’t be with Ann because she had a career and Priscilla reminded him of his mother and if he didn’t love her then he would of left her in germany and moved onto the next.

    Screw Priscilla, the only reason he ended up with her instead of the women that he really loved was that? he was too nice a guy and he was forced into it. He was very unhappy.

    This was Vegas when it was Vegas, I meet Elvis & Ann Margret at the Sahara Hotel. He was A GENTLEMAN, very nice and polite. At 12 years old I was BLOWN away by Ms. Ann Margret I remember we had NO pencil and paper, but ELVIS was willing too wait for us to get something to wright on, but my DAD didn’t want to hold ELVIS back. They left in A Gold limo. I will NEVER forget? that encounter.

    this is the movie that turned me to elvis. The very first time I seen elvis was in this movie. It was love at first sight. I was 5 at the time? (back in 1993). Never looked back. My love for elvis and my elvis collection grow more and more everytime I see his face or hear him sing.

  13. BonJoviXSkidRow says:

    @theatreluver19 She was? real pretty but he was dating Priscilla at the time so basically Ann was the “other woman” who helped Elvis cheat. I felt so sorry for Priscilla :)
