Elvis Presley - Scene from "Live A Little, Love A Little", MGM 1968

By and by I'm going to upload my favorite scenes from Elvis' movies. This one here is from his 1968 MGM picture "Live a Little, Love a Little" which is probably the most unusual and mature of all of his pictures.

[@xdra31]

Not all Elvis films got the credit they deserved, this is actually a great film! I've never seen the whole film but these scenes here are really funny, Elvis was clearly good at comedy.

[@barbarawright1302]

I agree. I keep thinking are they watching the same movie i am.

[@seanfitzpatrick4730]

@@barbarawright1302 Elvis was good in many films and could Do drama and comedy equally as King Creole jailhouse Rock flaming star kid Galahad wild in the country roustabout Charro and live a Little Love a little all great movies and performances he was definitely an underrated versatile talented actor boxer cowboy Indian photographer he could do it all he was fantastic have a great day ✌🏼✌🏻👍🏼✋

@@seanfitzpatrick4730 I totally agree!

[@TENNESSEETORNADO]

I totally agree.. when he said that's a dirty trick... too funny

[@rodneybryant6543]

He didn't get credit because he didn't have much say or control over the type of movies he acted in. One of the reasons he stopped acting was he was constantly singing and dancing throughout his movies while getting the girl at the end. He wanted more creativity and depth to his characters.

[@courtneywatson5594]

this shows that he was not just a good singer but also a good actor

[@deboisblanc]

I was watching an Elvis movie with my Mom about 20 years ago and she said he was good actor. I asked her to go on, and she said well he has to spend two hours each movie to make people believe he's not Elvis.

We knew this as far back as King Creole

A really good actor. Wish he could have done a star is born

[@eduardocrestani2454]

I don’t think so, he was a tremendous singer but a average actor

Some of his best acting. Rarely did the script rise to his level of talent

[@vuhaduongpham4925]

I believe that if Elvis hadn't starred in musical movie, he would be a great actor

[@BurnedSpace]

i think his acting is great. not like daniel day lewis level but not cringe

[@kelliintexas3575]

He did several not musicals. Funny thing is he HATED MUSICALS.

[@margarettaylor8107]

He was a great actor. By your comment, you think only dramas require great acting. FYI it is the comedy that is hard to pull off. Comedies require great comedic timing. Few dramatic actors are good comedians. Ekvis had perfect timing..so said his directors and co stars. Hal Wallis refered to Elvis as his genius. The director of Casa Blanca once came on set just to watch Elvis. He said Elvis was the greatest natural talent he had ever seen. Who ekse coud have played the irrestible gorgeous man thst all women wanted in his movies except Elvis? No one else would have been believable. I remind you that his big screen image is what so few had. Elvis also had combined talents no other actor ever had. Elvis had a photographic memory and knew everybody's lines. He could do all three simultaneously..sing, dance and play an instrument. Think that is easy? No other actor could do it. Michael Jackson, the Beatles no way could either. Elvis played many instruments too ..the accordion, drums several guitar types, the piano, organ for starters. He danced and created his own moves. He did most of his stunt work such as his own karate fight scenes. And he loved danger like driving fast sports cars and motorcycles. When presented with a dramatic role, he nailed it. He sang with great rhythm in multi language songs and every kind of music genre known to man. Who else could have sung songs like Old MacDonald and have sung them in good humor and well? Elvis had no acting training. He is one of a kind and a great actor.

[@bobbigger4710]

On August 12th, 1977 I got to interview and have lunch with Rudy Vallee at Holiday Inn Carowinds. He was performing a one man show at the Pineville Dinner Theater. He had gotten a bad review in The Charlotte Observer and was cussing up a storm, ranting and raving. I was a dj at WGNC radio in Gastonia, NC and called the motel. I asked about Elvis and he said, “I did a picture with him for MGM which, if you haven’t seen it...don’t!” During the interview in his room and during lunch he opened up and shared all kinds of stories about Al Jolson, Bing Crosby, Johnny Weismuller, Bob Hope, Maurice Chevalier. He said Elvis was very polite, called him Mr. Vallee, and had a new Lincoln Continental delivered to the set the first day of filming. I am still in shock that I, a 25 year old small market dj, got to spend several hours with a major entertainment legend. I think the film is very good and that Elvis showed himself to be an excellent actor. Also, I think all of Elvis’s soundtrack albums contained very enjoyable songs, some of the best Elvis recorded.

[@arisuhonen2368]

In the late sixties and early seventies those dune buggies were popular for awhile. My uncle would buy kits, assemble them in his garage and sell them. The frames were fiberglass and came in unusual colors like tangerine, banana yellow, violet, electric blue which had a glittery effect in direct sunlight.

[@nenabunena]

They were in some star trek films too

[@ildikonyilas4870]

Elvis plays excellently in this film as well. Thanks✌👑👼❤🌹

[@mateusdecarvalhobueno7757]

Elvis movies are supposed to be fun, but it's a shame he couldn't fulfill his dream of being the actor he wanted to be, making more serious movies. At least his legacy lives on to this day.

[@laurenceoconnor6499]

Had Elvis Presley gotten better scripts he would have proven a great actor. Elvis Presley had excellent comic timing.

[@rodneybryant6543]

It wasn't the script. It was the plots. All his movies revolved around the same central theme of singing and dancing and getting the girl.

[@rodneybryant6543]

@WheresPaul#1981 And they were turned down by his manager.

[@rodneybryant6543]

@WheresPaul#1981 I just recently found out that his manager was an illegal alien and was afraid he might not get back into the US which is why Elvis never performed out of the country except Canada. As famous as Elvis is now and then, imagine what his stardom would've been had he performed globally.

[@BrentWilkins7777]

I think this is the first time Elvis used the term "damn it" in a movie. Well, it's 1968, so I'm not surprised. That was pretty much the year the Hays Code had died, and the MPAA came out with the ratings system which gave filmmakers the freedom to include sex scenes, four-letter words, etc.

[@rsolsjo]

Bizarre comment to make, but those "DVD subtitles" just made me nostalgic.

[@seanfitzpatrick4730]

Elvis could do comedy and drama equally as well he should have did more movies mixed with comedy and drama anyhow this was probably one of the best comedies of the 1960s very underrated movie Elvis looks great great romantic comedy Elvis's the fight scenes awesome as well Elvis look very good in 1968 if he took better care of himself he could have look like this through the whole 70s and if he had bit of management who knows he could have played mcgarrett in Hawaii Five-O he also would have been good in the TV series The Bionic Man he has so many gifts and talents but a little opportunity very good actor underrated Kid Galahad and wild in the country the great Elvis movies great performances a long with King Creole yes Elvis was a good active very underrated Live a Little Love a Little great comedy

[@kelliintexas3575]

Maybe you should read " Destined to die young". Elvis had MAJOR health problems from birth. There is WAY more to that story. His mom, Grandma Doll & 6 of his 8 uncles all died in their 40's. He took perscriptions to deal with his Genetic health problems, his enlarged paralyzed colon, Glaucoma, Antitrypsin Deficiency, a condition which can result in lung and/or liver disease both of which he had severely at the time of his death. Elvis was never a smoker or drinker. He had Together with the immune system disorder, hypogammaglobulinemia, which plagued Elvis all his life and caused him to constantly fight various infections. His “inherited” weak heart, reactive arthritis, and the impact of his nocturnal lifestyle, resulting in a lack of vitamin D, the effects of which contributed to respiratory infections, reduced immune function, and inflammation. Of the 11 bodily systems that operate to keep us alive and hopefully healthy. Critically, Elvis suffered disease or disorder in nine of them! And five were present from birth and pre his fame. His heart (circulatory system), his lungs (respiratory system), and his bowels (digestive/excretory systems) required medication. Insomnia affected his nervous system……His immune system was compromised. His urinary system was not functioning properly. At one point there was even talk of dialysis. Often he is dismissed as just another rock ‘n’ roll drug addict. He wasn't taking street drugs. He was taking perscriptions not to "ESCAPE" h was taking them to try to maintain some sense of normalcy as himself in a time where the medical field was limited. No DNA, Genetics, No MRI's, little known about the addiction, his dystrophy & No understanding of Vitamin D even. Looking at the illnesses and disorders, that mounted upon each other over the decades, it’s no coincidence that Elvis’ prescription drug use increased as his health declined. From ear infections to chronic tonsilitis to recurrent flus to eye infections and glaucoma…..these arguably insignificant ailments independently, grew into something more. As his body broke down, alongside multiple immune system disorders and genetic complications, prescription medication and his handy PDR tried to fill the gaps. When that no longer worked, hospital stays became the norm and his list of ailments grew. The sicker he got, the more prescriptions he was prescribed. He was seeing a cardiologist before he bought Graceland. He was 20yrs old. They have gone through Elvis's entire life of medical records & now have an entire different story now. This is all the facts Geraldo & 20/20 never stated.

[@imahotmess872]

This is funny because I have a great aunt who turned 78 3 days ago, and she loves Elvis Presly. But, unfortunately, the day she had her birthday, she had a hard time breathing, and she needs to go to the hospital. But since the virus happened, and we have to wear masks, she’s really mad. To make her feel better, I’m having a singing recital. I’m singing I Can’t Help Falling in Love with You by himself. And guys, let’s pray for her.

Two songs featured in the film charted; the title song {#69} and "Almost In Love" {#95}... "Live A Little, Love A Little" was co-written by Mac Davis { in 1972 he had a #1 record, "Baby Don't Get Hooked On Me"... And "Almost In Love" was co-composed by Randy Starr {in 1957 his "After School" reached #32 on the Top 100}...

Some great actors in this film too...the mother with the little kid is Joan Shawlee who was the band leader on the train with Marilyn Monroe in the classic film Some Like It Hot. Ann Doran was in Rebel Without a Cause with James Dean. Michele Carey was "Joey" in El Dorado with John Wayne. Rudy Vallee was the heartthrob before Frank Sinatra. Celeste Yarnell & Emily Banks both went on to the original Star Trek with William Shatner. Banjie Bancroft went to Star Trek III. Don Porter was an Emmy-nominated actor from the Ann Sothern Show. Sothern was a hotty with perhaps the best pair of lips any woman ever had -- she even looked good in her later years with Bette Davis, Vincent Price & Lillian Gish in The Whales of August. Dick Sergeant came from Bewitched.
