Elvis

So the other night TCM carried a few hours of old Elvis movies, and YES, I got sucked into watching bits and pieces of some and all of one!! Dang! I was up till 1:00am watching cheesy, dumb old Elvis movies. . loving it! HA!! I saw part of "It Happened At The World's Fair" ( I flip back and forth between other channels. . watching Fox News and DIY. . so I'd get songs mostly. . but thats the best part!) I saw a little of "King Creole", which I havent seen the whole thing ever, and still haven't. "GI Blues" was next and I saw more than less of it, I loved the songs from this one. . and then because I'm not smart enought to go to bed at 11:00, I sat and watched "Roustabout". This one has fun tunes too, but its pretty typically Elvis and Hal Wallis. . when I was 11 in 1964, they were the BOMB. . so romantic and wonderful to watch. HA!! But what I saw then and I saw the other night thats still the same, was the joy that Elvis had on his face when he was singing and preforming. . that smile and attitude that made him Elvis. I found myself smiling and singing and thinking that there will always be a place for Elvis in my entertainment agenda.
