Episode notes

This week we bring you a vintage episode! My guest John Madsen of the YOURS, MINE AND THEIRS podcast. We discuss the epic KING CREOLE starring Elvis Presley and Directed by Michael Curtiz!

Denied his high school diploma because of a schoolyard fight, Danny Fisher (Elvis Presley) is unsure how he's going to support himself and his unemployed father (Dean Jagger). He briefly flirts with a life of crime before a club owner (Paul Stewart) hears him singing and offers him a job. Things look promising until rival club owner and Danny's former boss, Maxie (Walter Matthau), tries to lure him back with threats and the charms of his sometimes-girlfriend, Ronnie (Carolyn Jones).
