Much has been written about the very beautiful Dolores Hart, who starred with Elvis Presley in Loving You and King Creole – two of his first films who then, after a pretty good film career, gave it all up and found ultimate happiness becoming a Nun and serving The Lord in a capacity that she has given her life to.
Dolores and Elvis on film, look the perfect couple, and from what we know Elvis thought a lot of her.
Out of all the Elvis films, I think that King Creole had the strongest storyline. It is adapted from the book “A Stone for Danny Fisher” and Elvis Presley plays a rebellious kid who leaves school and takes up singing at a night club in New Orleans, only to get mixed up with a group of thugs (headed by Vic Morrow) and their crime boss (Walter Matthau).
Elvis considered this melodrama his best film. Directed by Michael Curtiz, with very good actors in their roles. Dean Jagger, Walter Matthau plus Caorlyn Jones and Vic Morrow. The Songs include “Hard Headed Woman,” and “King Creole” itself.
The best music performance though is Elvis’ with “Trouble”
Then of course we have the very lovely Dolores Hart
