It Happened at the World's Fair (1963)
Member Rating:  
This Elvis Presley vehicle is close to a lemon, even for his die-hard fans. Elvis is Mike Edwards, a pilot of a small plane who has a faithful sidekick, Danny (Gary Lockewood), and a penchant for singing. The story, such as it is, takes place in-between a total of ten different songs, the most memorable being "One Broken Heart for Sale". Mike is tough on the outside but he is willing to take up a good cause when he finds Sue Lin (Vicky Tiu) temporarily abandoned at the Seattle Worlds Fair. Aside from Sue Lin, he also finds an attractive nurse who is not abandoned but might still need attention. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

    Elvis sounded like he was losing his voice.Again, a typical Elvis silly.

    I usually like musicals but the lack of even a reasonable plot had me nodding off half way through it...

    Not much of a plot, but of course you don't watch an Elvis movie for the plot! Elvis fans will love this, as well as Seattle fans (especially those who remember or are curious about the 1962 World Fair). And of course those who liked Yvonne Craig, Joan O'Brien, Edith Atwater...

    Yes   |   No
