- The role of Jess Wade was originally offered to Clint Eastwood, who turned it down.
- Several explicit nudity and violence scenes were cut from the final film, toned down or removed from the script prior to shooting.
- Although successful, the film wasn't received as well as Presley's previous films; fans were put off by the lack of songs, and critics were generally unimpressed with it as a whole.

PLOT: Stock-car racer Steve Grayson falls in love with an IRS agent who investigates his financial problems.

- shot on the original Cecil B. DeMille set from the film "The King of Kings", with additional footage shot on location at the Iverson Movie Ranch in Chatsworth, Los Angeles.
- Some of the film was based on Rudolph Valentino's 1921 movie "The Sheik".

✩✩✩✩✩ EP'S FIFTEENTH MOVIE! ✩✩✩✩✩
PLOT: Talented race car driver Lucky Jackson wants to make enough money in Las Vegas to get a new car so he can win the Grand Prix. When he meets sexy swim instructor Rusty, he considers staying there longer. After Lucky loses his winnings at the hotel, he is forced to stay in Las Vegas to earn back his money, but now he also wants to win Rusty's heart.
✩✩
TRIVIA:
- In Great Britain, both the film and its soundtrack were sold as "Love in Las Vegas", since there was another, different film called "Viva Las Vegas" that was being shown in British cinemas at the same time that Presley's was released;
- The chemistry between the two stars was genuine during filming, and Presley and Ann-Margret began an affair that received considerable attention from film and music gossip columnists;
- The filming reportedly produced unusually heated exchanges between the director George Sidney, and Presley's manager, Colonel Parker, who ended up not credited as a "Technical Advisor" in the film's credits;
- The arguments reportedly concerned the amount of time and effort allotted to the song and dance numbers that featured Ann-Margret, ostensibly on the orders of the director;
- Because the film went over budget, Parker would slash budgets for all remaining films in Presley's career;
- Little Church of the West, the oldest wedding chapel in Las Vegas, is the location used in the closing scene;
- The scene where Presley sings "Viva Las Vegas" is performed in one single unedited shot, the only known example of such a technique in Presley's film career;
- For his role, Elvis Presley received a third place prize 1965 Laurel Award for Best Male Performance in a Musical Film.
✩✩✩✩✩ Released May 20, 1964 ✩✩✩✩✩

✩✩✩✩✩ EP'S FOURTEENTH MOVIE! ✩✩✩✩✩
PLOT: Lieutenant Josh Morgan is sent by the military to mediate a land deal with his distant cousins in the mountains. He faces resistance from the men in the house, but the women are crazy about him.
✩✩
TRIVIA:
- While set in the Great Smoky Mountains, the film was shot in the Los Angeles area, both on set at MGM Studios and outdoors in the San Bernardino Mountains east of LA;
- Some filming took place in Big Bear Lake;
- Screenwriters Gene Nelson and Gerald Drayson Adams were nominated for the Writers Guild of America Award in the category of Best Written American Musical (won by Mary Poppins);
- The song "Smokey Mountain Boy" was deleted from the 1997 VHS release;
- The song "Kissin' Cousins", which was performed as the movie's finale, reached #12 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified Gold by the RIAA;
- Elvis was profoundly displeased with the blonde wig he had to wear to play his cousin, so one day all the crew and Colonel Parker wore blonde wigs on the set.
✩✩✩✩✩ Released March 6, 1964 ✩✩✩✩✩

✩✩✩✩✩ EP'S TWELFTH MOVIE! ✩✩✩✩✩
PLOT: Mike and Danny go to the World's Fair in Seattle after their crop duster biplane is seized to cover gambling debts. Mike ends up looking after a 7 y.o. girl and meeting a cute nurse.
✩✩
TRIVIA:
- filmed in Seattle, Washington, site of the Century 21 Exposition;
- The governor of Washington at the time, Albert Rosellini, suggested the setting to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer executives.
- Elvis sings "I'm Falling in Love Tonight" live while at the Space Needle;
- Kurt Russell's film debut (a small uncredited role as the boy who kicks Elvis in the shins);
