"Blue Hawaii", 1961, Elvis Presley, Joan Blackman and Nancy Waters. Probably his best movie, it
re-launched Elvis's career after his tour in the Army.Playing a returning G.I. vet, Presley, as Chad Gates,
is determined to seek his own career rather than
join in the family pineapple plantation business.
With lots of great Hawaii location shots and Elvis reprising the classic 1937 Bing Crosby song
"Blue Hawaii", it was also a dream come true
for the Hawaii tourism industry.
The movie's sound-track album was a huge best seller.
