ELVIS: SPINOUT!(1966):


SPINOUT:

Shelley Fabares(Girl Happy) is back with Elvis, playing
a spoiled little rich girl that Elvis is hired to sing for
and possibly marry! Also returning is Jack Mullaney
(Tickle Me) who provides a lot of humor along with
the rest of Elvis' band member!

As a cute twist here we have cast as Shelley's rich
father, Carl Betz who also played her father in the
hit TV show The Donna Reed Show!

Songs include a pretty little number, All That I Am,
as well as Am I Ready and I'll Be Back!

Not an earth shattering movie, no real heavy plot
here, just three girls trying to get Elvis to marry
them! Not one of Elvis' best. C+

From another reviewer at Amazon:

Elvis is harried by three, count 'em, three
marriage-minded dames in Spinout, in which
he plays a race car driver/rock & roll singer.
He's offered big bucks to compromise his lifestyle
by playing a party for a rich girl (frequent co-star
Shelley Fabares) and drive a millionaire's prototype
car, but Elvis isn't tempted by material gain. (Sort
of an inverse plot to EP's real showbiz career.)
Most of the picture has the flat, studio-bound
look that director Norman Taurog perfected in
his many Presley vehicles, with only the big
race scene in the last 10 minutes perking things
up. However, the songs are rockin'-er than
usual for a mid-Elvis movie, with "Stop, Look
and Listen," "I'll Be Back," and "Adam and Evil"
all fun in a dragstrip kind of way. (Let us ignore
"Smorgasbord.") Elvis is in his chunky pre-comeback
form here, and looks understandably bored
by the plot. --Robert Horton
