Elvis plays a roughneck country boy, seething with hostility but gifted with literary talent. In the occasionally precious Clifford Odets script, this comes across as James Dean by way of a Thomas Wolfe novel--and not a bad shot at respectable acting by Elvis. His monologue about his dead mother, delivered to sympathetic shrink Hope Lange, is one of the most affecting things the King ever did in a movie. The songs are kept to a minimum, and Presley has some good, thrumming energy with the young Tuesday Weld (bad girl) and Millie Perkins (good girl), two uncommonly smart actresses. This is one of many Hollywood melodramas suggesting the angst brewing beneath the prosperity of the Eisenhower-Kennedy era, and it holds up decently, if not spectacularly. For Elvis fans, it's a poignant glimpse at a performer still in the young-buck stage of exciting possibilities. --Robert Horton
Description
Possibly the sexiest of all of The King's movies, this film finds Elvis playing a backwoods delinquent blessed with great literary talents with Millie Perkins as his childhood sweetheart. Co-starring Tuesday Weld.

A decent film with some big name costars. Hope Lane, Tuesday Weld and Millie Perkins are all love interests of Elvis in this movie.

This has got to be Elvis' best picture to showcase his acting talent over his great singing.
It is almost what would have been considered a coming of age film of the 50's, not unlike "Rebel without a Cause." Super cast members to support his lead.
Great film to see with the family. In noway would this be a chic flic or teenage love story. It is adult storyline completely.

I had this movie on VHS but I wanted it on DVD. It is one of my favorite movies starring Elvis. It was hard to find but I found it easily on Amazon and got it quickly. This movie shows him in a more serious role than most and I like that.
