THE STORY BEHIND THE STORY - At 30 years old, Elvis was just past the midway point in his film career - and a dependable figure at the nation's box-office. Though made as his 20th motion picture, this musical film was actually released as Elvis' 21st (Paradise, Hawaiian Style went to theaters first). Hailed as a "lavish musical spectacular" (Boxoffice), packed full of "fast moving fun and fine performances" (Los Angeles Times), Frankie And Johnny adds a new twist to a classic American legend - this time, with a happy, upbeat ending that's "Elvis all the way" (Variety).
THE STORY - Elvis and Donna Douglas ("The Beverly hillbillies") are Frankie and Johnny, two riverboat entertainers with a passion for performing - and each other. Featuring a dozen wonderful songs including "Shout It Out", "Beginner's Luck", "Everybody Come Aboard" and "Frankie And Johnny", this fiery musical is a sure winner!
