Popcorn Flix:
Elvis accidently faked his death. Wanting to take a break. he trades places with an impersonator who died on Aug 16 ,1977.
Unable to prove he is himself, he has a career of impersonating himself; until he breaks a hip and winds up with also hidden JFK fighting a Mummy from Ancient Eygpt
Popcorn Flix:
Top Secret – Val Kilmer did the first posthumous Presley Picture playing “Deke Rivers” – produced by the makers of AIRPLANE!
Val did a turn as Elvis’ ghost
Val Kilmer is 52 now and in poor health. Unfortunately, he is a Christian Scientist and is refusing medical care for what is likely easily treatable.
so….
in 1988, before Footloose – there was HEARTBREAK HOTEL
a teenager kidnaps Elvis to teach the town to rock and his mom – played by TUESDAY WELD – to love again.
When I worked in a video store in the 1990s, a client tried to convince me this movie happened and I explained to him that the disappearance he was alluding to was Elvis’ weekend with Tricky Dick.
…
anyway – here’s the big musical ending to Heartbreak Hotel
David Keith plays Elvis. He usually plays soldiers, included the lost little one in Bette Midler’s big star diva pic The Rose.
But Playing Elvis as a character archetype – I noticed it first here
More recently. I noticed it here. like the day job isn’t enough
you also gotta be a rock star, eh?
Elvis was the first and last entertainer the whole world could agree on.
Before him, no one had heard of being a rock star, now everyone wants to be one.
